BLS-5 USB Dual Battery Charger Adapter for Olympus E-M5 Mark III, E-M10, E-M10 II, E-M10 III, E-PL9, E-PL8, E-PL7, E-PL6, E-PL5, STYLUS 1, Digital Camera for Olympus BLS-1/BLS-5/BLS-50 Battery

I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this charger. I was a away from home, and needed to recharge my camera battery, and l had left my original Olympus charger at home. The delivery was very quick, and it did exactly what l needed. I was a bit concerned when l read the description that it was supplied with a very short built in cable, but this is actually an advantage as it stores within the body of the charger, and means you can carry it in your camera bag for emergencies, and you don't have to take an additional cable. In my opinion for the price this charger can't be beaten.

Having recently lost another brand of charger, I ordered this JJC battery charger. I have owned other JJC camera accessories before, and they have tended to be good value, and this BLS-5 and BLS-50 charger is no exception. Yes, it does feel cheap to handle, but then at £10.99 it is around a quarter of the price of an OM-Systems version, and that only charges one battery at a time. This JJC charger charges at a reasonable speed (I use a UGREEN fast charger sold separately on Amazon). The JJC charging times are pretty good; both batteries from flat to fully charged in just under 3 hours which is only slightly longer than the advertised times.

I bought this 2years ago and liked the compactness and the LED system. Which way around to put the batteries is not very clear. But the reason it doen't get 5 stars is because it no longer works. I appreciate it wasn't very expensive - unless it is calculated on a per charge basis. I see a number of poor reviews comment on its reliability, so it would seem that build quality is questionable.

So much better being able to charge 2 batteries at once. Being able to charge them up in the car helps too, no more waiting for them to charge up at home. Well worth buying, I bought 2 - 1 for the camera bag and one for the car.

Plugged it in and the two red lights flash briefly but nothing happens. It does not charge at all. I have tried it with a genuine Olympus battery and with Duracell rechargeable ones. Either singly or in pairs there is no charging whatsoever.

This charger does work although it does not fill me with too much confidence, the indicator lights seem to do as they wish.

Sturdy, well made and fit for purpose. Fantastic cheaper alternative to known branded makes.

It will blink once but it doesn’t charge at all. Absolutely useless.

Good quality and price.

Acquistato per caricare la batteria della mia Mark III, appena collegato all'alimentazione emetteva luce per una frazione di secondo e poi si spengeva. Ho provato anche a lasciare il caricabatterie attaccato con la batteria inserita, nel caso il problema riguardasse solo la spia segnaletica, ma dopo un'intera notte "in carica" la batteria era ancora completamente scarica. Ho effettuato il reso e sto ora aspettando che l'articolo torni ad amazon per ricevere un rimborso.

Useful battery charger for my olympus camera. Works with original and compatible batteries.

Having misplaced my OEM charger for my camera, I needed a replacement and JJC to the rescue again. Has the advantage over the original charger that you can simultaneously charge 2 batteries, with the flexability of using the usb port on your computer or out in the field with a battery pack. No need for mains with this charger.
