Advantages: Good value for money Disadvantages: Takes a long time to charge batteries
I had been intending to purchase a batterycharger for quite a while. In fact I had even dropped hints to certain family members around Christmas time, but to no avail. I was recently reminded of this missing piece of equipment in my life when I rediscovered the PC lead to my digital camera. Remembering that a pair of standard batteries lasted for only about 30 photos in this camera I decided that it was certainly time to invest in a batterycharger and some rechargeable batteries.
I purchased an Energizer CHDCW8 ? 4 batterycharger from Argos for just £9.99.

It has a sensor control, a red and green light, to tell you when it is still charging and when the charge is fully complete. Another helpful feature is that it includes a car adapter for no extra cost.

Overall the charger is quite ...
