Counterfeit
Genuine vs.
Outside appearances are misleading, but inside
there are striking differences. The counterfeit reveals
poor quality, careless workmanship and contains a
fraction of the components than that of the genuine
Canon counterpart.
Throughout the consumer electronics industry,
counterfeit accessories like batteries and chargers
can compromise performance with inferior
engineering and construction. Posing as genuine
in appearance and function, they risk damaging
the original Canon product by possibly overheating,
exploding, combusting, and leaking—at the worst
causing bodily injury and property damage. Luckily,
with a little knowledge and common sense, it’s not
hard to avoid counterfeits and the risks they bring.
