Review by John P. Robertson for Lenmar DLC4L Digital Camera Equivalent to the Canon NB-4L Battery
Rating:
I ordered one of these batteries as a backup to the Canon battery that came in the box with my Canon Powershot SD1100 IS, at the same time I ordered the camera.
Although the Canon battery, according to the writing on the shell, was made in Japan, and the Lenmar in China, they seem to be almost identical except for the tiniest variations in color of plastic and molding marks.
Both batteries are rated 3.7V and 760mAh. I put a digital multimeter on both batteries at full charge, and both read exactly 4.15V, which is about what would be expected.
There are batteries available with a higher mAh rating, but there’s no iron-clad guarantee that they will hold a charge better, last longer, or even take more pictures on a charge, regardless of price. And even the best batteries will have a few duds in the batch, as a minority of these reviews reflect.
I could have done a test on how many pictures each will take on continuous shooting, but I will wait until both are “broken in” or conditioned… discharged and charged several more times. Then I will edit this review with the results.
I have discharged both batteries a couple of times while testing every feature of the camera, and I didn’t note any problems or perceive any significant differences.
My camera should recycle the flash in about 3 seconds on a fresh battery. The Lenmar seems to be about 10% slower than the Canon, which amounts to a few tenths of a second. For one fourth the price, I can live with that.
For my Powershot, Canon advises not leaving the battery in the charger for more than 24 hours… as mentioned by another reviewer, it’s not a good thing, regardless of protective circuitry in the charger or battery.
The battery will fully charge in 90 minutes, and there’s no benefit in leaving it in the supplied charger after the green light goes on.
Tip; “Keep the battery terminals clean at all times. Dirty terminals may cause poor contact between the battery and camera. Polish the terminals with a soft cotton swab before charging or using the battery” (Canon manual).
So far, this battery seems like a good deal to me. I’ll give it five stars, but only time will tell if the original battery is superior. I like it enough that I placed an order for another one today, along with another 4GB SDHC card.
I believe that you have to take a lot of pictures to end up with a few really good ones, especially with a compact camera, and I would rather carry several batteries than rely on a car charger… too slow.

I bought this as well as other Lenmar batteries. I own the Lenmar equivalent of a Sony camcorder battery, two other different Canon camera equivalents, and now I’m getting the NB-4L and NB-5L as well from Lenmar.
I don’t have a doubt about Lenmar. The batteries I bought three years ago are still performing flawlessly, and while Canon has caught up to them in capacity (yes, the Lenmar batteries used to have more capacity than the Canon branded ones) they are still high quality and charging with the cameras’ OEM chargers without any problems. And they cost a third to half the cost of the Canon and Sony branded equivalents.
The Lenmar I got for my S400 Digital Elph actually outlasted the Canon battery, though I used them alternately and the Lenmar had more mAH than the Canon.
I’ve had more quality and warranty issues (though resolved) with Canon than I’ve had with Lenmar, so for me Lenmar deserves all five stars.

This works fine with my Canon SD-450. It’s rated 760mAh just like the one provided with the camera. Given there is no difference, it definitely deserves a high score for being almost half the price.

After reading the customer reviews, I went ahead and ordered two of these. I figured even if one of them didn’t work, I’d still have one that worked (and still it’d cost less than the branded battery). Well, I’m glad I got two. One refuses to take any charge (the charger flashes red to green and back again. The charger isn’t supposed to hit green until the battery is charged). The second one I purchased works fine, however. You’re definitely taking your chances with this. But hey – even if you buy three of them and two of them are duds, you’re still paying less than you would for the Canon battery.

Bought these from Amazon for only $7.99. I bought two and both are equally good. I got 320 pictures and 10 short videos from one charge of these batteries, which is more than the one that came with my Canon SD630. I only got 210 from the original so when I got 330 out of this battery I was estatic. For only $8 what a deal! Esp. when the Canon is $50. I got two of these so I have enough battery power for over 800 photos before I need to charge. Don’t know about the longitivity of these batteries but even if they don’t last as long as Canon’s, I’m completely satisfied.

Pros:
Excellent Range – even with existing Wireless G clients
Gigabit ethernet ports
Network Attached Storage
VPN Endpoint
Excellent web interface with help along the right column
Our house is like a wireless black hole. We have tried multiple Wireless G routers and cannot get a strong signal throughout the house. If the router is in the center of the house, we usually get a 11 mbps connection from our Wireless G clients. If we put the router at one end of the house, we do not get a signal at the other corner. We don’t live in a huge house by the way. With this router, we get a full strength signal through the house, regardless of whether it is placed in the center or in one corner. I assume it’s due to high gain antennas plus the built-in power amplifier. The range of our Wireless-G network has been extended greatly without even having to upgrade our computers to Wireless-N adapters. Most Wireless-N routers transmit in the 100 mW range (e.g. Linksys WRT610N, D-Link DIR-825). This router transmits above 800 mW, close to the legal limit of 1000 mW. You can look up the transmit power of all routers on the FCC web site. Excellent product!
Update on September 1, 2009: Buffalo has confirmed a bug in the router. It sometimes loses the ability to connect to wireless clients. It seems to happen to me once every 1-2 weeks. I have to reboot the router to correct. They assured me that the first firmware update will correct it. The significant speed and range improvement for me makes it worth dealing with this minor issue.
Also, a positive review from Small Net Builder (formerly Tom’s Hardware): [...]
Update on October 29, 2009: Updated firmware (v1.65) is available on the Buffalo Technology website. My router is running it, and so far I have not seen any issues.

I bought this router after considering EVERY other one on the market as of this review date regardless of price… Literally EVERY other router, from Linksys (610) to Netgear (3700) to D-link (855, 4500, 4300) to Belkin… I do NOT regret it for a second. Every other router seemed to have it’s minuses and was more expensive than this one. After a small setup glitch with my comcast modem I’ve been up and running for weeks with a full signal everywhere in my 2-story house. I have the router in my basement and I still get a full signal on the opposite end of the house on the second floor. For (…) this was the best purchase I’ve made this year.
On top of this with the newest (1.70) firmware everything seems to work very well and the news just keeps on getting better… Buffalo just announced last month that starting this summer all new firmware for all of their wireless routers will be based on the awesome DD-WRT firmware! This is an industry first that should not be overlooked. Buffalo tech just shot way up on my tech list of best brands. Here is a link to the press release: (…)
The only complaint I have about the router is that it only supports drives with a fat, fat16 or fat32 filesystem… This sucks if you’re downloading (or want to share) any files bigger than 4gb.
Overall do NOT hesitate to purchase this router, you will not be disappointed.

I was wondering when someone would come out with a Wireless-N version of the Linksys WRT54GL Open Source router. Buffalo seems to have done it. The WZR-HP-G300NH is a combo wireless gateway/router/switch that supports Wireless-N with a 400 mHz processor and it has Gigabit LAN and WAN ports! The icing on the cake is that Buffalo and DD-WRT have entered into a joint agreement. Buffalo will sell and support this box with DD-WRT firmware starting in July 2010. This is HUGE news! DD-WRT firmware is awesome!
I had no problem flashing my version A0 D0 unit directly from Buffalo firmware directly to DD-WRT firmware using the Buffalo Web-GUI.
However, be advised:
1) DD-WRT software has so many features that it takes a good bit of knowledge to configure this unit properly.
2) I only use this unit as a switch and for Wi-Fi. I have Fios, so I can’t use it for my gateway.
3) Reportedly the problem of flashing DD-WRT firmware to hardware version A0 A3 models has been fixed.
4) Current DD-WRT firmware (July 2010) is beta. Many users have reported that when using DD-WRT firmware they cannot connect and maintain wireless-N connections at 300Mbps. (It connects at 300Mbps, but then drops to and stays at 130Mbps. Stock firmware supports 300Mbps much better than current DD-WRT. Hopefully, future releases of DD-WRT will fix this problem.)

Replaced a 7 year old Linksys WRT54G version 2.0 with this. Did not even give the stock firmware a chance, so I refuse to comment about the functionality of it. Within 5 minutes of opening the package the router was flashed with DD-WRT v24 preSP2. Have been running the DD-WRT firmware on my old Linksys WRT54G for around 5 years and it has performed spectacular. The latest release on the Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH so far appears to be just as reliable as on the old WRT54G.
This is a fabulous router and a great price point! The internal hardware specs guarantee the unit will perform for many years as your bandwidth and throughput need increase. With an Atheros AR9132 chipset, 64MB RAM and 32MB of flash memory on board this unit is currently at the upper level of the home user hardware specs. Better hardware then other routers that cost twice the price. The built in USB port and NAS functionality are also pretty awesome.
As a side note, please be aware to take full advantage of the routers 802.11-N capability, you will need to use WPA2 with AES. Also, running in the 40MHz configuration has increased the connection speed from 130 Mbps to 220Mbps.
Follow Up:
Two days after writing this review I started to notice this unit intermittently dropping wireless connections. Even on the 20MHz setting. Tried it with the vendor provided firmware and it is still occurring. Did a WiFi site survey chose and tried it on 3 different channels (not used in my neighborhood) still dropping connections from several different devices. I had such high hopes this would perform as reliable as my old faithful WRT54G. My hopes have been shattered.

I love the speed and range of this router, but I had nothing but problems trying to get it to reliably connect to a number of devices. For some devices, no problem. For other devices, they could not connect or would drop their connections. I fix computers and networks for a living so I am not a newbie in this area.
However, all the problems went away when I installed the latest DD-WRT firmware. You can go to the DD-WRT website to find the firmware, but installing it properly is not for newbies. I’ll try to post instructions on how I did it when I have more time.
Bottom line – the router is now working GREAT! I would have given it 5 stars, but the hassle of having to get another vendors firmware got it 4 stars.
There are batteries available with a higher mAh rating, but there’s no iron-clad guarantee that they will hold a charge better, last longer, or even take more pictures on a charge, regardless of price. And even the best batteries will have a few duds in the batch, as a minority of these reviews reflect.
Each have their own point of view.
