Replacement Battery for E620

kenmo · Aug 30, 2020

Wondering if someone could recommend a good aftermarket PS-BLS1 battery for my Olympus E620.

The Olympus batteries are simply too expensive. I've had excellent luck with WASABI batteries for my Nikon D3300, D5200, D7000 & D7100. And I would prefer WASABi which I purchase via my Amazon Prime account.

Sadly WASABI is not offering any batteries for my E620 vis Prime. They are only being offered with a huge shipping cost which is twice the price of the battery. Living in Canada not surprised the shipping is expensive.

I do see DTSE, Asperx & BM batteries offered via Amazon Prime

Amazon.ca

Any thoughts or recommendations? Again I wish to purchase via Amazon Prime.

Cheers

Ken

Can you get Cameron Sino? I use them for my EM-1 and have used the same brand for three different phones without any problem. I think they have the battery you need. When I search for PS-BLS1 I get one called CD-BLS1 but E-620 i listed. Alas further clicking just leads to a login page. I think it's for retailers.

They list a number of sites selling their brand here.

Found several sellers at amazon.ca but they seem to be out of stock or something, no Buy button.

Sorry but I have no idea of what you are suggesting.

And the link you provided does not have a list of retailers.

Maximal Power. Have had two pairs of these, no problems. Have bougt BLM-1 from them too.

If you're not happy with the reviews - search "DSTE bls-1" in Amazon. They have them with chargers and without. Have used DSTEs in in my E-M1ml1 forever, very happy with them.

B&H carries a Watson BLS-1 for twenty bucks. They're a reputable brand and it should work fine. It's not a chipped battery so doesn't have as many technical hurdles to clear.

An Oly OEM will be old because they're discontinued for awhile now.

Good luck!

I'm suggesting the brand Cameron Sino since they have worked well for me for several devices. If you type the name of the battery in the search box at their site you find their replacement, but we can't read further because that requires login.

I see that. But it did yesterday. Now I can't even find the link I clicked to get there. The link text was 'Where to buy' or similar and the page listed several large online shops, Amazon among them.

Thanks for that. I completely forgot about Watson batteries which I did use in my E500 and still have the batteries & camera.
