A new level in battery capability

These new Ginger series batteries from Wasabi Power with the built-in USB C charging port set a whole new level in battery capability for me. I bought two for my OM System OM-1. The first discarge cycle on both batteries yielded almost twice the shots of my OEM batteries, and naturally they were easy to charge with only a USB-C cable and a standard wall charger. No more carrying a separate battery charging block on trips.

Brilliant design. When traveling every bit of weight and clutter counts. I carry a universal charger for my phone, now I can use it to charge my camera batteries, saves having yet another item. Seems to have a similar life compared with Olympus batteries. Just two batteries see me through all my days of photography. Would recommend.
