Has anyone tried this battery?

f you use it while the camera is under warranty, can it affect it in case of an alleged breakdown?
Thank you

I have no experience with batteries for TL but Subtel's have a good reputation in general. Now the Leica warranty does not cover damages caused or sustained by third party batteries. See warranty.leica-camera.com.

Thanks for answering.
In other leica cameras I used non-original batteries and nothing has ever happened.
LT2 is currently going to be the main camera and perhaps not to take risks, it is best to buy the original.

My experience with non Leica batteries is limited to the M9.  The 3rd party battery worked well at imaging but the battery and charger eventually became  squirrelly due to the non Leica battery.  After that experience I figure the price of a second or third Leica battery in the price of the camera.   Similar to Leica bodies the batteries retain good resale value.

Now I have seen that there have been those who have used it and it seems that it adapts well, it remains to check the performance time.

For the price it has, I buy 1 to have it as an emerging backup.

When I have it in my position, I will report in this thread.

And how is Leica going to check which battery was used?

No need to check. I will teach you this if you send me one dollar... as a deposit
