Not sure about 6d, but these work great in my 5d3. Camera reads unique serial numbers and % charge just fine.

I cannot find any Wasabi Power Battery and charger that lists the 6D. There are chargers for the 6d's batteries, but no batterie are offered as far as I can see. In the other answers one reader recommended Blue Nook.

Don't know about the 6D, but they work GREAT in my 7D. Never have any problems with these batteries. If the 6D uses the same battery as the 7D I would purchase.

Previous version of these LP-E6 batteries where not recognized by Canon 6D. However, just yesterday I got a replacement from Blue Nook. New ones ARE recognized by both - 6D camera and Canon charger with comes with 6D.

If the 6D has the same battery specs as the 60D then yes it will be 100% compatible and will show charge level.

If your 6D uses the same batteries as the 7D then I'd say yes you can use them. But check with your manual or better yet ask your camera salesman in any camera shop. I have used them in my 7D and they work great!

I don't see it listed :S but if u find these kind of batteries for your camera, don't doubt to buy them, they work perfectly fine!!! :)

I never experienced such drastic draining of charge when using those supplied batteries in the grip (when the camera was OFF). Mine is performing well. Please check if the same happens when (not using the grip) a single but different battery is installed in the body-if so contact the canon service; in the meanwhile, check all the contact pads in the grip for any short circuit. I hope you can figure it out easily.

I dont see that on my camera upon battery charging. I suggest you check the firmware to see if any update are available.

I bought this product to use in a 5d, same battery as a 20d, and it has worked for 6 mo.so far. I would say you have a detective one.

A representative of the company that makes the battery in question, explaining that it truly does work in my camera. The explanation soundedreasonable and I appreciated the call. I have not needed to use the battery so can't tell if it works, but will try it in the future. Thanks for asking. MP

I have just purchased them so I cannot say anything about this problem.I have only charged them. The original Nikon battery charge lasts for a while, so I did not put the new purchases batteries to use yst. Hopefully the are good...

They work really well on my 7D, and I think both the 6D and 7D take the same battery, you should be set. However, check this out first.

That is a function of your camera, so you should be able to see how much charge is left. I do look at it off and on, but never look to see which battary is in the camera and I have always been able to see what charge I have left.

You didn't say what camera model you have. It might not be compatible with the batteries. Read the list of compatible cameras. Also, a Canon camera might not recognize another manufacturer batteries but it might still be fully functional. You just might not get a visual warning as to how much charge remains in the batteries. Hope this helps.

In my experience .2 VDC should not have an effect as I think there is internal regulation. I did not measure my new STKs and cycle them through my EOS 6D regularly with excellent performance. HOWEVER, it would be good to contact STK (very responsive) and Canon (a little less so) and ask to put your mind at rest. This is not an inexpensive camera. Again, my experience is very good. I will buy again in a year; I run batteries only one year before replacement.

The 6D has a battery info display in one of the menu screens. When you install the battery grip and two batteries, the camera recognizes both batteries and displays the remaining charge available in each of the batteries. I don't know if the camera signals an alert for low power, because with two batteries on board, I have never run that low. In my past experience, though most digital cameras give very little warning that the battery is exhausted. I hope this helps.

All the Cannon "D" series camera's should use the same kind of battery. If you bought a cheaper brand battery that fits the camera's it will probably have a different mAh than the more expensive cannon brand batteries. The charger should still charge these batteries but due to the mAh being different the charger will not be able to tell when these batteries are fully charged. At this point the charger will flash it's error light but the battery should be fully charged.If the charger just isn't charging the battery at all, then it's probably a bad battery or a defective charger.

After I replaced the original battery and put the camera on its charging station I thought the battery would not charge. After checking the battery level on the camera I determined that the battery had been fully charged upon receipt. I have had no problems with the new battery to date.

Mine is not working with my 6D :( I took it to the camera store and tried it on another 6D and it did the same thing, the flash will fire but the picture will still be dark. I would say on a test of 15 shots, 14 would be dark and 1 would be correct, even though the flash fired each time. We tested it on each of the modes on the flash as well as manual and auto modes on the camera, always with the same negative results. I then placed the flash back on my canon T2i and it worked perfectly on my old canon as it always did :/.

And you said you ARE using genuine Nikon batteries? I read where some of the cheaper batteries do not have a chip that nikon cameras read as an authentic battery. A lot of the grips are having problems with "non-chipped" batteries..... Just a thought
