Charge Me Up Baby

Advantages: long lasting, no more battery costs
Disadvantages: expensive to buy, uses electricity to charge

...So I bought the Uniross batteries nickel metal hydride battery charger from an internet site for £13.99 and with this charger I also got four AA rechargeable batteries free which was extremely great value. When it arrived on my doorstep I initially had to charge the batteries for twelve hours. The charger itself is a small grey box which plugs into your sockets for charging, it has the ability to charge either 4 AA batteries, 4 AAA batteries or ...
...used both AA and AAA batteries all the time. The charger also has the ability to charge both nickel-cadmium and nickel metal hydride rechargeable batteries with a switch that is present on the charger, but you cannot charge both types at the same time. Once the batteries have charged the red light that is present on the charger when you first put the batteries on to charge turns green, so you know that the batteries are fully charged which I also ...

Trying To Think Of Some Frankenstein Reference

Advantages: Never Buy Batteries Again
Disadvantages: ????????????????????

I go through batteries like no bodies business so when I saw this baby in my local Maplins going cheap (6 quid I think at the time) I decided that I must get it. That is about the cost of batteries for a week on my personal CD Player. The Charger itself can take both AA, AAA and 9 volt PP3 batteries as I use all of these then this multi-functionality is a must. The charger can also charge either Ni-CD or NI-MH batteries with the flick of a switch ...
...difference but I don't care as long as the thing works it is ok in my book. Charging for the first charge it says 16 hours so I left them on for that time, once the batteries are charged the LED went green, and then I plugged them into my personal CD player and dumped a set into my digital camera. Fantastic...... after that an overnight charge is enough for most needs. Ok the digital camera has hardly been used since then but it is a 40minute journey ...

Charge of the battery bridage!

Advantages: very compact, quick charging, easy to use
Disadvantages: none yet

...the pack included: An Uniross Photo Battery Charger 4 AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries This pack cost me £17.99 but as one pair of rechargeable batteries were in the region of £6-7, this to me seems quite reasonable (at last, SOMETHING I found to be a bargain!), but since doing some research on the net, I have found the same product to be slightly cheaper on certain websites. The instructions with the pack were to allow the supplied batteries ...
...you will need to plan in case you need the batteries urgently. The charger itself is silver in colour and measures approx 3 and ½ inches X 2 inches, being slightly rounded at the top. It is compact and easy enough to fit into a small space into the mains. The plug prongs are directly on the reverse of the charger so there are no wires to worry about tucking in, etc… There is a switch in the middle of the charger to allow the user the option of ...

Uniross Ultra Fast Charger Review - Best Charger

Advantages: Very fast charge times, turns off automatically.
Disadvantages: None

...Ultra Fast Sprint charger by Uniross is the best. To start with it takes no longer than 2 hours to recharge batteries and alot of the time it does it in less. The other main advantage of this charger is that it stops charging automatically when they are fully charged so no more waiting around to turn it off and no more worries about damaging the batteries if you left the charger on by accident. It costs £34.99 in Argos but I bought mine off eBay ...
...volts. Most uniross chargers are units that plug straight into the socket but this is a seperate box with an adapter which I find alot better as the old ones were too big for many of my sockets because the sockets were so near the ground. The charger looks quite good and is a dark blue. I have found no problems with this and it saves me money as I mainly use the batteries for my digital camera which drains batteries so quickly but not these. Overall ...

Why you may never need to buy batteries again

Advantages: Speed, reduce in cost of batterues
Disadvantages: battery time gets shorter as used more

Everyone owns something which requires batteries. They always run out at awqward times and cost you a ton of money. Then people look at rechargeables and if they dont look at the right ones, they loose out on battery time or could even cause damage to the product. This uniros set is definately good value for mony. Looking around you can pay this much for a charger by itself and half as much for a good set of rechargeable batteries. Ont he charger ...
...when the charge is complete. This can be easily seen and prevents confusion. The chrage times it provides will depend upon the batteries use, however the ones included can be charged in about 3 hours. The batteries themselves are high quality with a good battery time. They are intended for use on electrical items and usually power my digital camera for about 6 hours with the screen on before dying. They also run my wireless optical mouse for about ...

Tiny versatile charger

Advantages: Tiny, 12v Car Adaptor Included
Disadvantages: Battery compartment door falls off easily

Uniross "Ultra Fast Charger" This charger takes up to 4 AA or AAA (slightly smaller than AA) sized batteries; charging either two or four at a time. It is capable of charging 4 batteries, either Ni-Cd's or Ni-MH type, in around 2 hours and is supplied with a mains power and a 12v cigarette lighter adaptor. 4 AA Ni-MH 1300 mAH batteries are included with the charger, though its worth investing in some 1800 mAH or 2000 mAH ones for digital camera ...
...around the £25 mark, but you should be able to get it for less if you shop around. Good value for such a versatile device. Its size (about the same as two packs of cards), weight (less than the batteries you put in it) and provision of a car charger makes it ideal to slip into a digital camera bag to recharge batteries on the move. The charger has two lights, one to indicate power and one to indicate charging. The charger automatically switches ...

Uniross Charger + Batteries

Advantages: Good Long Life Batteries
Disadvantages: Switch isn't too clear

This review is for: AA batteries = 2 x (2.8V) and charger for Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh batteries. I bought this charger and batteries to play with my new CD/MP3 player. When arriving home, I opened the box, read the instructions and decided "yes, fairly simple, I'll give it a go". Let me note that there is a switch on this charger, and you can choose either Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh. Fairly simple to understand. So, before plugging them in to charge, I put the switch ...
...them in. A red light came on in the right slot, which also happened to be right next to the Ni-Cd, to indicate which side of the switch you choose. Just a coincidence, but I had to think for a moment that maybe it was charging Ni-Cd instead of Ni-Mh. I'm not sure how much of a wise design this is, but that was the only problem I have had with this charger. The batteries themselves have a decent lifetime after a full charge, and I was able to listen ...

uniross x-press 1000 charger

Advantages: super fast charge time, compact, easy to use
Disadvantages: none

I found this charger really easy to use, it can charge either two or four batteries at one time and charges them in less than two hours. I thought LED lights to let you know if the batteries are still charging or were fully charged, were a good idea and the fact that it automatically switches itself off when charge is complete means you can charge you batteries the night before you need them without worrying about having to turn them off. I use mine ...

Review on Uniross battery charger. RC101129

Advantages: Takes three different types of battery
Disadvantages: No auto shut off when fully charged

...sleek smart design of the Uniross RC101129 battery charger actually looks good whilst charging. We used to have an old dull black object that used to really smell of plastic, but my how times have changed. The RC101129 has room for AA's AAA's and what looks like PP9 if thats still the correct coding (the small 9 volt rectangular ones.) Anyway, it is suitable for both Ni-Cd and Ni-MH and a full charge takes 4 hours. It is clearly shown in which direction ...
...this, it's price which is under £12.00 and you must admit it's a steal. It's achilles heel however is that there is no auto-shutoff after the battery is fully charged. So do be aware that if you plan to go out during charging, and you are going to be longer than the 4 hour limit turn it off before you go out. But if you can live with this, it's a great buy. ...
