I bought this as a gift for someone else. Not sure how it works, but they havent complained so I am sure it works great! The delivery was very fast.

Great for the price, December 20, 2008

Battery holder is not all that positive but works fine. Can't complain for the price - does everything that the Canon unit does and more (car adapter) for a quarter of the price...

Good canon replacement battery charger , December 16, 2008

Like everyone else, I lost the very small battery charger for my Canon 400 camera. After being frustrated for several months I finally caved in and started searching for another one. I was SHOCKED at the price for these things. Especially the exact replacement one.
So, I bought this one.
For the price (it had free shipping) of just over $10.00
I don't know why ANYone would give it less than all 5 stars.
It plugs in
The battery fits in snugly
It charges it
Has a red light while charging
Has a green light (very dim) when done
Who cares that the light is dim. The red light is obviously OFF
Haven't tried the car charger one but THAT is really a PLUS! How many times on a trip has a battery run out? Now I won't have to wait until night time when we get to the hotel to recharge the batteries (that is probably where my other one is, in a hotel somewhere, stuck into the socket).
All in all, this one is bigger, about the size of an A/C adapter (plug in part) on your phone or other gear. The prongs fold in so you won't destroy them or bend them in your travels.
I think I like THIS one more than the original one. If I ever find the original one, I'll use it at home, use this one for travel.......& in the car. It does a great job and MORE than the original.
:-)
Can't beat the price (and FREE shipping)........ doesn't get better than that!

Great charger at a reasonable price, December 12, 2008

I lost the charger that came with the camera so had to buy another one. If I bought an exact replacement from Canon it would have been expensive. This this is great. Not as compact as the original but small enough and convenient. Plus I now have the added ability of pluging it into a car charger. Not something I will use very often but a nice thing to have when I need it. Works great and the price was great too.

CTA DIGITAL MR-NB4L Mini Battery Charger for Canon NB-4L
I purchased this 10 months ago and surprisingly it still works perfectly.
I only bought it as a temporary solution until I found my original canon charger (which I never did).
I got it, it worked great. It did take me a little while to figure out the battery had to be turned the opposite way rather than the way I got used to on the original charger. No big deal.
It is a little bigger than the original charger but not huge by any means. I only charge at home so that's really a non issue for me.
I do use the charger almost daily. I had expected it to inevitably conk out in a month or two, after which I planned to purchase a canon replacement charger but it has proven me wrong.
So I'd say overall it was a pretty good buy.
