Re: Canon M50 battery: what are the options?

I bought my M50 on October 2018, 3 years ago, and got 2 Wasabi batteries for $ 25

Lp-E12 batteries do not have chip.

After 2 years, 1 of the batteries swolen. So, I bought another battery from Big Mike, for $10.

Today, after 3 years, the Wasabi battery is a little bit swolen but still pretty usable. The Big Mike battery is still perfect after 1 year.

I always use the Canon charger on all batteries.

Next year I am planning to replace my old Wasabi.

Personally, I'd rather have 3 batteries (1 canon and 2 third parties)  paying $10 for each spare than a second canon battery for $60
