The batteries came half charged so I used the charger overnight to charge them to 100%. I then left both batteries for a few days before testing them with my Sony camera. Both batteries showed a charge of 100%.
One of my earlier third party NP FW batteries had a habit of slowly draining at about 1% per day when not in use and the camera was not in use, while another set completely failed within a year of use. This seems to hold the charge well for the time being. If I see problems I will update here.
As mentioned in the title of my review, the charger can be conveniently connected via a typical USB connector as well as a newer format (USB-C). The lights correctly indicate whether the battery is charged or not, and other brands of NP-FW50 batteries can be used.
Overall very good quality and no problems so far.

This rating refers to the LP-E6NH (Canon 5D).
I like that the charger can accept both USB-C and Micro-USB.
It comes with two 2250mA batteries (of course it's not as good as OEM).
It can charge two at the same time. The charging indicator is simple, just red (charging) and green (fully charged).
I like the portability because the original Canon charger is so big and bold and can only charge 1 battery (and no USB).

I need replacement batteries for the Sony ZV E10 and I needed an external charger for these batteries. This product is a charger and two battery. I have used the batteries and the charger regularly for months. Everything is working well. The charger charges up from 0 to 100% quite quickly. I can't recall for sure, but if memory serves, it is less than one hour, which is fine for me. Also, the replacement batteries seem no different, in terms of time to drain or time to charge, from the Sony brand battery that came with the camera.
I have only had the batteries and charger for a few months, so who knows what it will be like in a few years. It could be that everything continues to work as well as now, or things could start deteriorating. Time will tell, but at least on the basis of a few months of regular use, it is very satisfactory.

These work as advertised. They show up as “NH” batteries in an R5, so they unlock the power features including USB charging in the case. The charger also works well but only uses conventional power even when connected to a PD power supply. So don't expect fast loading.

I have a lot of generic batteries and some fit well and some don't. Some were DOA and others were the last of my original Canon batteries. So far these feel like a winner. They charge quickly and hold a good charge.

To be honest, I dislike The En-EL14 batteries for Nikon cameras as much as i do the NP-Fw50 batteries for Sony. These batteries have always had terrible battery life in my use cases. So having multiple batteries was always a must, to ensure that i was never up a creek without a paddle when i needed it most.
K&F has always done a good job with their series of batteries. I have tested their batteries across multiple camera brands and i have never had any issues with any of them. The only thing that can be said is that these do not give you the full battery life that the OEM will offer but the reduced battery life to cost savings over the OEM is worth it in most cases for me.
I used these batteries in my Nikon D5600 and D3500. I noticed more of a difference in performance in my D5600 battery life when compared to OEM than with my D3500. I took both cameras out with me while i walked around getting shots of nature for the day. It was about 95 degrees that day so i expected the batteries to die much faster, which did not happen. The batteries held up well in the higher temps and gave me a sufficient amount of shots. In most cases, i would never take over 300 shots when birding or anything of that nature but did on both cameras just to better access the batteries.
The biggest area that i noticed a difference in was when i left the batteries fully charged in the camera bodies and coming back 2 days later to one at 52% and the other at 39% when i had never seen the at much of a power drain on my OEM batteries when i left them in the body. Not sure why that happened but i know now to never leave those batteries in the body if i want them fully charged and ready to go.
Overall these are good batteries that fall slightly short of the OEM. It is also hard to find new OEM batteries, so amongst the deep sea of third party batteries, these are some of the better ones i have used.

The batteries have a very good lifespan and charge quickly. The double charger helps a lot day by day

Very pleased with these batteries that works great in my aging Nikon D5100 DSLR that can be picky about aftermarket batteries.
Pleased that the charger accepts USB-C charging and has big clear red / green status leds for each battery.
I’ve tried a few products from K&F concept and have been impressed with them all.
5/5 recommended
