Here is another helpful Drop Test. We decided to go with something a little more realistic this time around. We dropped a Canon LP-E6 Battery from about six feet. As you can see in the video the battery casing cracked open. This could result in serious damage to the camera if anything were to leak out. Hopefully Canon will take note and improve the casing on these batteries. At over seventy bucks a pop, I would hope they could take a beating.
