Olympus BCM1 Battery Quick Charger for C7070, C8080, E1, E300 & E500 Digital Cameras

The battery charger was in perfect condition and worked great. So much cheaper than going to Olympus website and ordering it there. Thanks Amazon

Very compact and easy to use. I wish more battery chargers were as small and efficient. I took the original charger out of my bag which took up far to much space in my small Sony camera bag. Sony should include this charger with all its DVD Cameras!

I was a little disappointed with the 5 hour charge time using the charger that came with my Olympus E-510 so I ordered this 2 hour charger (that I felt Olympus should have included in the first place).

Well, now I have this thing, and while it works great - its huge and I see why Olympus did not include it with this camera. I thought the 5 hour charger was a bit big until I compared it to this. I'll use it for studio work where with two batteries it allows constant power availability for the camera (a discharged batter would fully charge before a charged battery was exhausted in the camera).

This charger will fully charge a BLM-1 lithium battery in 2 hours (or less if it's partially discharged). There's a red light that indicates it's charging; and it turns green when the battery is fully charged. It's a very dependable and small unit, so you can store it in the camera bag with minimum space required.
