I have Progo batteries and the Progo charger. They're my favorites.
The Progo charger is quite small, has a flip-out plug and holds the
battery securely when charging. The signal light is red while charging
and green when charged. Whether Oly, Progo or EZO I charge all of my
E-M5 batteries on the Progo. The Oly charger seems to be needlessly
large. It also requires an AC cord but that can be resolved by buying
flip-out plug adapters typically advertised on ebay for Apple gear.
I think the Progo batteries have slightly less capacity than the Oly
battery and the EZO batteries have even less than the Progo. But the
Progos are close enough that it doesn't matter. They work well and the
price is right.
Note: The Progo charger is nearly identical to a no-name charger I
bought on ebay for my Samsung WB650. Only the contact locations are
different.

I thought the Wasabi, and others for non-coded batteries, might/could
not quite fully charge coded batteries. The Progo I have claims to be
fully coded, so their charger, which I don't have, might do fine.
