Does not work with some Canon cameras

Does not work with some Canon cameras, The Q&A section of this listing says it works with Canon 5Ds. It does not, I’ve tested it on my 5D Mark II, III, and IV as well as my 60D and 60Da and it also doesn’t work. I also tried 3 different batteries with USB C PD outputs. Perhaps this is only for mirrorless cameras?

What a nice battery

does the battery door close so the camera will turn on?
Asked by: Matthew
It would depend on your camera model; however there are many camera models that are built so that the cable of the ZILR USB-C to Canon LP-E6 Dummy Battery Cable would be able to fit with the battery door closed. I would recommend checking the battery door of your chosen camera to verify if there is a channel for dummy battery cables built in.

Any info as to whether this will mitigate overheating issues while filming 4K on a R6?
Asked by: Duane CA
Powering through an external battery is certainly a method to help mitigate heat build up in the battery slot on the Canon EOS R6 Mirrorless Camera. The ZILR USB Type-C to Canon LP-E6 Dummy Battery Cable is one approach to take.

Will this device work with any charger or battery source that supports the USB-C power delivery specification? Such as an Anker Power Port III charger or an Anker Power Core III power bank.
Asked by: David
I ordered this battery adapter for my canon R5 based upon the previous answer. Upon receiving the adaptor, and being somewhat skeptical, I first plugged it into an Anker PowerCore Elite III charger which supports the power delivery specifications, and checked the voltage delivered to the camera. I found that the battery adapter output voltage is 8.47 volts which is comparable to the Canon battery output (8.4 volts). I also verified that the Anker PowerCore Elite III battery pack is compatible as well.

Will it work with newest Canon EOS R50?

Will it work with newest Canon EOS R50?
Asked by: Roman
No, the ZILR USB Type-C to Canon LP-E6 Dummy Battery Cable is incompatible with the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera (Black) since the camera accepts the Canon LP-E17 Lithium-Ion Battery Pack and not the Canon LP-E6NH Lithium-Ion Battery (7.2V, 2130mAh) style battery. Consider the Bescor LP-E17 Dummy Battery with USB Type-C Connector Kit. See the link below: https://bhpho.to/3xSqytB
