The battery I ordered was a brand name Olympus. According to the Olympus product page, the epl5 uses the BLS-5 battery. I use it with my epl-2. Works great. Should last a long time between charges, depending how much it's used. I got my BLS-5 at a good price on Amazon.

I use mine with an E-PL5. I really doubt that Olympus made too many changes with the USB interface. However my combination works flawlessly. HTH

It will fit and work on the Olympus E-PL1 body. I have several four third type cameras and I use the Fotodiox adapters and other brands of adaptors on all of these cameras.

When I emailed Olympus to complain about this battery issue, they told me that I could use Lithium batteries. I tried them...but it ran those out of power just as quickly as the alkaline batteries. So if you use those....you will still need to carry around quite a few extra charged four packs!

All I can tell you are these are not real olympus batteries. I bought these and one would not charge and the other one would hold a charge for about a day. Buy from olympus and get the real thing.

LI-50B. A fully charged battery will last me about 2 hours of continuous use...and we love using the multiple picture feature. I keep an extra charged battery on hand when I know I will be taking a lot of pictures in a short amount of time. FYI: Olympus brand batteries last a longer time than generic ones...I use both.

I just look for OEM in the description. My OEM does not use a wire, it plugs directly into a wall socket with retractable prongs... Just look for OEM or genuine Olympus.

Yes. This is the real deal and has the Olympus name on it. It plugs directly in the wall and is great to travel with as it is compact and takes up little room. I like it better than the one I got that came with the camera. Hope this helps.

It works with both my E-PL5 and OMD E-M5. According to Olympus, both of my cameras use the Olympus remote cable RM-UC1, so if the E-PL2 works with the RM-UC1, I believe it will.

The packaging and the battery all appear to be oem. The battery is identical to the original battery that came with my camera. They hold the same level of charge. I use my camera above ground and shooting underwater photos. They do degrade over time, I have one I bought a few years back that barely holds a charge for one dive though that can be up to 200 photos.

My experience with this battery is that it has not held up as good as the one that came with the camera. It doesn't seem to hold a charge nearly as long as the OEM, even when not in the camera. My suggestion would be to purchase a Sony battery.

I don't see why it would not work. The description says all Olympus models. It works TTL on my E-P1 and OM-D E-M5 and it doesn't specifically list those models in the description.

It didn't work on my Olympus PEN E-LP1 as it's the only PEN camera without remote capability. Best bet is to call Olympus Support to verify before you purchase.

Mine are FOR OL LI-40B 3.7v 1200mAh 4.4Wh Li-ion Battery Made in China, has a sticky paper cover, works just fine with my Olympus FE-340. They arrived quickly....I figured even if they were the wrong ones, for the price I wouldn't be losing much.

I have been using Wasabi batteries fo 5 years,in Canon,now Olympus.Very happy with them,they are chipped,you can use their charger to fill your Olympus batteries,so you dont have to take along the awkward lead.

The batter of course is generic but it is stamped with "For Olympus" "LI-90B" so if that's what you need it should work. This little kit is a great buy for the money.

the original adapter works for me. so it is able to charge this battery upto 100%, but the battery does not last more than 3 hours (almost like the original battery with 6 cells, with the 9 cells i was expecting longer charge time, now i wonder if it was due to the need for a new adaptor? or just that the battery was not of high quality, i'll need to cross check the voltage and amperage numbers before spending more on this)
