Question: Is this really an Olympus original equipment charger? I have ordered these in the past and ended up with generic chargers. Is this really used?
Document: I had lost my original charger and my camera was completely dead, with no other way to charge it. When I went online to the Olympus site I couldn't believe how much replacement chargers were. Thank God Amazon had cheaper ones.When I ordered it I failed to see the fine print that stated the charger I was ordering was NOT the one pictured. The one pictured was the original that plugged right into the wall, the one that you can buy has a cord.
I was very glad to get a new charger for my Olympus Stylus Tough 8000. Through all of my travels, I must have left the original one behind somewhere. When I found this one, I wasn't real excited, yes, I wanted to be able to charge my camera, but the original one was a cord that just plugged into the camera itself. Simple and easy. This one you have to take out the battery, place it in the charger and then plug it in.
I guess many people like having in-camera charging for the battery. I prefer to keep a charged battery as spare and change it out when needed. Then I charge the used battery with an external charger and keep it for the spare. Luckily Olympus used a semi-standard battery for my new camera and they also make this nice simple charger for it that's required by some other models. It's inexpensive and works just like I want it to.
I lost the wall charger that came with my Olympus Stylus Tough. This is an exact replacement ... brand name quality. I've had a bad experience an off-brand charger for all different kinds of batteries and there's just no comparison. Buy the brand name that's meant for your equipment!
I was glad that this was a genuine Olympus charger & that the battery was only designed specifically for this charger. It's not a generic charger designed for multiple batteries. It was sent "fast shipping within 24 hrs". I recieved the product within 2 or 3 days. I'd definitely order from Argent Electronics again.
What I had ordered had the plug in in the back of the charger - it did not have an additional cord like what I received. Therefore - the picture you had on the screen I ordered off of did not look like this
It wasn't clear in the description of the camera that a charger came with it. I ordered one separately that I sent back. The company was great about it. The charger works fine.
There isn't much to say about a battery charger, it works or it doesn't, in this case mine works.My only comment is on the instructions, which I tried to read because I was concerned that maybe I had ordered the wrong thing since I purchased this LI-50C to charge a LI-50B battery. Now I understand that the C=Charger and the B=Battery, but, it was not clear on the instructions that it was made to charge the LI-50B.
This battery charger is compact. It plugs directly into the power source, which negates the need for a power cord. Although I haven't timed it, I know that it charges my batteries much more quickly than any charger I've had in the past. I definitely recommend this charger.
Does not charge battery. Took on vacation. Charger simply never worked. Can charge battery through camera with no issue. It's too bad since I thought I would have luck with Olympus OEM.
Answer: This is original manufacturer's Olympus charger.  I've used it a lot last year on vacation.  It works great with olympus battery & with genetic batteries as well.
