Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a good value: you get 2 rechargeable batteries AND a charger for about an Alexander Hamilton. Course, the batteries are 2000 mAh rather than 2500 or 2700, but picky, picky. You put in your batteries, next morning they are good to go. That's the good news.
The bad news: it is an old-fashioned, "dumb" charger of yesteryear. The charge times listed in the instructions are:
AA 1300-2000mAh = 8-12 hours
AA 2100-2500mAh = 13-16 hours
AAA 850-900mAh = 11-12 hours
Output:
AA 2.4v x 2 = 190mA
AAA 2.4v x 2 = 90mA
There are no colored or blinky LED's to tell you when your batteries are done. You just have to keep track of when the listed time is up. Also, you must charge 2 or 4 batteries; a problem, since I have some lights that use 1 or 3 batteries (D'Oh; you have come up with a creative solution so you have 2 or 4 to re-charge).
Judging by the times, however, I assume that this an old-time trickle charger. If so, it is OK if you forget to take your batteries the next morning; they will keep OK for a few days still in the charger. Also, NiCd's should be OK (I have not tried this yet; don't ask).
With the above reservations, I do recommend this charger. I should also say that it does both AA and AAA. There are molded plugs for both sizes in the case itself; no funky clips to move or break. I have used this for several different AA and AAA rechargeables of different mAh and manufacturers; I just leave them in overnight, and next day they are good to go. I have had no problems.
