Customer Reviews

Good Product
This is a very good product and does all functions as it claims. I liked it. It is worth the money invested. I been using this product for last 4 months.

Long charge time
It works, it is heavy so it seems good, but it takes a pretty long time to charge batteries. You can probably get away with a few hours for AA batteries but for anything larger than that, overnight is needed. I had a set of brand new AA batteries (did not come charged) so I charged them for the first time and I had to leave it overnight in that situation, too.
For those of you buying the charger because you want to use rechargeable C or D batteries- did you know that the basic kind you'd buy at Walmart or Radio Shack have no more power than a AA battery? Look at the specs- you'll be surprised, I was. Essentially, these basic C and D's are nothing more than AA's in a larger sleeve!! (This is NOT true for the top of the line rechargeable C's and D's you can buy online at battery warehouses, and I don't think this is true for non-rechargeable, alkaline batteries). I had no idea until recently- otherwise, I wouldn't have even bought this charger. How you get around this is you can buy "adapters"/"converters" that are simple sleeves you slip your AA batteries into. Then, wa-la- you have C and D batteries, at a much lower cost (C and D rechargeables cost a LOT more than AA rechargeables). Search the web for a place to buy the converters- they are not carried in basic stores (or Radio Shack- the guy there didn't even know what I was talking about).

Performs as expected
Holds a lot of batteries and charges them quickly. I've tried a number of different types of rechargeable batteries including eneloops and it works great. The box is bigger and heavier than it looks on the picture, but that was a positive surprise.
