Mavic/Wipperman or the Wipperman is Campagnolo and shimano 10s compatible.

Yes, Wippermann shifts fine in Shimano Ten systems. My guess
is that the boxes were printed before Shimano offered Ten,
so it says "Campagnolo".
KMC-Best value, great product, nice snap link. Who cares
about the web page anyway? That doesn't affect shifting and
any competent LBS has the chain you need. Their box also
says "Campagnolo" - with the actual logo , no less.

Shimano and Campagnolo both have a severe case of "not
invented here" regarding snaplinks - to their detriment. It
would be sad if it weren't so humorous, the machinations
they both went through to avoid paying a partial cent per
chain for the use of a great design.

Which Wipperman? I assume it's the Connex 10 series? Does it work as well,
not quite as well, or better? I'm a big rider and go through a lot of
chains so have shied way from expensive chains, but I've always wanted to
give a Wipperman a try.

Thanks

Works on par with other 10s chains. KMC, Campagnolo, shimano.

Yes the '10s' version.

I have one Campag 10 with Campag's chain and one with a Wipperman SS
chain, and the Wipperman seems to shift with much more of a clunk,
less smoothly than the Campag. Perhaps this is just a reflection of
the setup on the different bikes, but when I mentioned it to my LBS
they said they had heard other similar reports.

Also, the Wipperman link is NOWHERE NEAR as easy to fasten and
unfasten as the traditional SRAM. In my experience the Wipperman chain
must be spotlessly clean to manipulate the link.

Just give the link a short blast of WD-40...then unhook it.
