XtremeMac Car Charger For iPod shuffle

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

...can get and a pack of these alone cost £15 (Argos). It charges either Ni-Cd or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries and either AA or AAA. You can only charge up 2 or 4 at a time. There are 2 LED's. One is green which means the charger is switched on. The other is red to mean it is charging the batteries. Besides mains you can also charge in the car with the supplied adapter. It is also compatible in different countries as it can take power from 110-240 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... Read review

Advantages: Very fast for charging high Mah batteries
Disadvantages: only charges AA and AAA batteries

...Well Ive had this charger now for around two months. I bought it online as with having a young daughter the need for recharging batteries is a weekly task and my old charger took over 10 hours to charge a set of 4 AA's. This charger is absolutely brilliant it came with 4 high power 2500 Mah Ni-MH AA batteries and charges these from flat in around two hours I also use it a lot for low spec Ni/Cd 700Mah AA batteries and it charges these fine as well as my AAA 250Mah batteries in under an hour. So to sum up this little charger which comes with a mains adapter as well as an adapter to use your car cigarette socket I would rate it as excellent and definitely recommend to my friends or anyone after a compact high quality charger for a low price. The only downfall ive found is that I also need to charge larger size C and D batteries... Read review

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 use as they last a bit longer. This charger is 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...
