Multi battery charger

[Ph0t0]

Does anyone have any reccomendations for chargers that would charge two or more LP-E6NH batteries?

Thks, have you tried using it with Canon original batteries by chance?

Yep, have been using it for 18+ months. No issues using both SmallRig and original Canon batteries.

Smallrig has another (new) USB-C charger for LP-E6P (and LP-E6NH) batteries. It can charge 2 batteries simultaneously. It is very compact, barely bigger than 2 batteries. It has indicator lights for charging status and comes with a USB-C cable. I paid 28€ at Amazon (incl. VAT).

What about compatibility with LP-ENH/P and LP-EL (Speedlight) batteries? Does anyone have recommendation for a compact multi-bay charger that can take both?

Based on your post, Pieter, I bought this one too. It works perfectly, especially when used with a power bank. Thanks

I don't know about a charger that takes both but I am using those two and I am very happy with them :

Patona LP-EL dual charger which has a USB-C and a (legacy) USB-micro B plug

Patona Premium Twin Performance PD Charger for Canon LP-E6 which works perfectly well with both my LP-E6NH and LP-E6P

Thank you for the suggestions! I'm wondering why only Canon's LC-E6/E charger is compatible with both... the one for LP-EL you sent has a meager 0,5A max with two bays used (vs 1,2A of the Canon charger, not dealbreaker but to be noted). The second one is very interesting with 1,5A×1 and 1A×2: this performance with the "flat" form factor and compatibility with LP-EL would be PERFECT.

I see that only the Canon charger has the additonal T and C contacts for temperature monitoring and other kind of communication, but both LP-E6P and LP-EL batteries charge at 8,4V, so I'm lost at why there are so few options out there. I guess all the wise people go Godox and live a simpler life...

Yes, the LP-EL charger is an old, "weak" one. The Premium one is much better indeed but it definitely doesn't fit LP-EL batteries (I've tried, believe me... )
