Replacement battery and dual charger

This kit supplies one 7.1 Wh lithium-ion cell rated at 3.7 V and 1900 mAh plus an LTD2 charger that accepts Micro-USB or Type-C input at 5 V up to 15 W. The charger can handle two batteries simultaneously and swaps plates to fit other Canon BP-709, BP-718 or BP-727 packs. It targets owners of VIXIA HF R-series, HF M-series and LEGRIA camcorders who need a spare power source and flexible charging away from a wall outlet.

Sustained charging behaviour

When both slots are occupied the charger delivers 8.4 V at 800 mA to each cell, so total output current remains within the 15 W input budget. The intelligent LCD shows real-time capacity percentage for each bay, letting the user monitor progress during extended top-ups. Heat stays manageable because the charge rate is fixed rather than ramped, avoiding thermal throttling during long sessions.

Practical USB power limits

The dual-bay design is bound by the 5 V 2-3 A source; a weaker adapter will lengthen charge time for the second battery. Micro-USB and Type-C ports share the same input rail, so only one cable is active at a time. Users needing faster turnaround for more than two packs must rotate cells or add a second charger, as the single LTD2 unit cannot exceed its rated output.

Questions about this item

Does the LTD2 charger get hot or make noise when charging two BP-718 batteries continuously?

The charger runs from a 5 V 2-3 A 15 W USB supply and delivers 8.4 V 800 mA per slot, so heat and noise stay low during all-day charging.

What power source do I need to run the LTD2 charger?

Any 5 V 2-3 A USB source — wall adapter, power bank or laptop port — via the Micro-USB or Type-C input; a Micro-USB cable is included.

Will the BP-718 battery work in my older Canon VIXIA HF R30 camcorder?

Yes, the BP-718 replaces Canon BP-709, BP-718 and BP-727 cells and fits the full VIXIA HF R30 through R800 and LEGRIA HF M36 through M306 ranges.
