## Description

desertcart.com : Wasabi Power USB Battery (Ginger Series) for Olympus BLX-1 and Olympus OM System OM-1 / OM-1 Mark ii : Electronics

Review: Perfect battery for the OM System flagships! - This Wasabi Power LP-E6NH kit is a total vibe for anyone tired of carrying a brick-sized wall charger. If you're looking for an in-depth breakdown of why this is a "must-grab," let’s get into the details of the "Ginger Series" setup. The "Why" Behind the Wasabi Love First off, Wasabi has been the reliable cousin of the battery world for years. While some third-party batteries make your camera act like it's seen a ghost (we’re talking "Incompatible Battery" warnings), these are fully decoded. That’s tech-speak for: your camera actually recognizes it, shows you the exact percentage, and lets you hit those high-speed shutter bursts without the camera throttling your performance. The Game Changer: USB-C Integration The real star of the show here is the Direct USB-C charging on the battery itself. The Scenario: You’re in the middle of a shoot, your bag is overflowing, and you realize you forgot the external charger. The Fix: You don't need it. You can literally plug a USB-C cable (like the one for your phone or iPad) directly into the side of the battery. Pro Tip: This means you can juice up your spares inside your bag using a portable power bank while you’re still shooting with your primary. It’s peak efficiency. The Nitty-Gritty Specs Capacity: We’re looking at 2400mAh. For context, that’s a beefy upgrade over standard LP-E6 models. It gives you that extra "buffer" for long video sets or those 2,000-shot days. Build Quality: These use Premium Grade-A cells. You aren't getting that weird "swelling" or heat issues common with the super-cheap knockoffs. The Kit: Since you grabbed this on desertcart, it usually comes with the dual USB charger too. Even though the batteries charge via USB-C directly, having the dual dock is great for overnight resets when you need to top off two at once using any USB wall adapter. Final Verdict If you want to spend less time tethered to a wall and more time striking a pose (or capturing one), this is it. It’s high-quality, high-capacity, and it actually plays nice with your gear. Wasabi delivered the goods again—reliable, smart, and way more affordable than the name-brand alternatives without sacrificing the tech.
Review: Value & Convenience - Good price with convenient built in USB C charging. Works well with the OM 1 Mkii camera and even battery level displays. Capacity seems respectable after a couple of days of shooting. Recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cost effective but not equal to OEM.
*by R***L on November 18, 2025*

Cost effective for a backup. Does not last as long as OEM (maybe 80%) and battery shot count does not always reset.
