the intelligent battery charger.

Advantages: Cheap, reliable, long lasting, reasonable price.
Disadvantages: Still gets warm. Plastic plug = breakable?

...believe that most of my batteries have charged in about 60 minutes, on a full charge from an empty battery. As well as getting the charger, which plugs straight into the wall it includes 4 x 2500mAh Ni-Mh AA's (which are in sliver, and look quite attractive, you won't get these thrown out as they definately stand out from panasonic and duracell) You can charge AAA batteries however the sale only comes with 4 AA batteries. 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. This charger the Sprint 90 accepts Ni-Mh and Ni-Cd batteries, in both AA and AAA Formats, charging them in sets of 2 or 4 at a time. Also charging 2 batteries will reduce the charging time. Overall the charger is quite...

The Energizer Battery Charger

Advantages: Good value for money
Disadvantages: Takes a long time to charge batteries

...I had been intending to purchase a battery charger 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 battery charger and some rechargeable batteries. I purchased an Energizer CHDCW8 ? 4 battery charger from Argos for just £9.99. This decision was based on several factors, the most important of which was the price and what I considered to be the best value for money. The design also played a part in my decision process, but in the end it was the price/value that were the strongest influencing factors...

Review of Energizer CHDCWB-4 Battery Charger

Excellent Battery Charger

Advantages: Charging time of 5 hours, Includes 4 AA batteries, Compact design
Disadvantages: None

...and it starts charging your batteries. The actually charger is about hand size and can be used while travelling too. It has two LED's which light up green when both sides have batteries placed with in it, if you only place two batteries on the front only one LED will light up and vice versa. If on the other hand the LED's don't light up then your battery is either faulty or you haven't places it in the charger properly. Main functions: - Charging time of 5 hours - Battery charging LED indicators - Includes 4 x 2300mAh NiMH AA's - Compact design for 4 batteries - Timer control - Basically turns charger off automatically when batteries are fully charged. . With my charger I got 4 AA 2300mAh Ni-MH batteries. You can also get 4 AA 1300mAh Ni-MH batteries or 4 AA 2500mAh Ni-MH batteries with the charger. The 2300mAh basically means...

Review of Uniross X-Press 300 - Battery charger - 5-9 hr - 4xAA/AAA, 2x9V - included batteries: 4 x AA type NiMH 2300 mAh

Uniross Ni-Cd & Ni-Mh battery charger (ref. RC101159)

Advantages: The stop charging facility
Disadvantages: not really

...There is not much to say about this, simply brilliant! Is very straight forward to use, only one switch to chose the type of battery to charge, insert the batteries, up to 4 depending of type, plug it in and wait until its charged. It comes with a charge indicator and will stop charging when the batteries are ready; a green light will come up. It can recharge batteries type AAA, AA and GF22, respectively up to 4, 4 and 2. I have purchased on a promotional campaign so the price is irrelevant, although you can find it at the big stores in promotion time to time. I have purchased another 2 battery chargers, a Uniross that only charges up to 4 AA type batteries but has the problem that you can?t forget to set a timer to unplug it or will over charge the batteries and will damage them. Another that allows all the type of rechargeable...

Review of Uniross Photo - Battery charger - 14 hr - 4xAA/AAA, 2x9V - included batteries: 4 x AA type NiMH 1700 mAh

Rechargeable NiMH Batteries

Advantages: Last for ages
Disadvantages: none

...without any loss in performance, cost about the same as NiCads, but are much more effiecient at what they do... ~~~o0o~~~ By way of an example....my Sanyo Digital camera runs off 2 standard AA 1.5 volt Bateries, these work the Flash Gun, Back Screen Monitor, View Finder and Camera Functions, using 2 Duracel Batteries my camera will take about half a dozen high spec pictures using the flash gun and back screen view finder.... Using NiCad rechargeable AA Batteries, on the same high Format pictures, the camera will take about 15 pictures before a fresh set of batteries are called for.. Using MiMH rechargeable Batteries in the same circumstances the camera will take about 60 High Format pictures.... ~~~o0o~~~ So the proof of the pudding is in the eating...these NiMH batteries are excellent, you can buy a special NiMH Battery Charger...

Super Sony charger

Advantages: Fast Charge, Auto CutOff
Disadvantages: Only takes AA/AAA

...the batteries in things that aren't Wii related but that just seems to be the thing in our house which drains batteries so it's ideal for that. You can buy four AA Ni-MH batteries for around £10 and as mentioned earlier we paid £16.99 for our charger which still seems to be the price on play.com Thanks for reading :)...

Review of Sony Super Quick Charger BCG34HE4 - Battery charger 4xAA/AAA - included batteries: 4 x AA type NiMH 2500 mAh

No more need for batteries!

Advantages: Saves money on batteries, charges quickly
Disadvantages: Cable is a bit on the short side

...The play and charge kit allows you to replace the battery pack in your wireless controller with this rechargeable pack, and so there is no longer any need to keep buying batteries. It is very simple to use, just replace the battery pack with the rechargeable one and plug one end of the cable into the controller and the other into your Xbox 360. This will charge up your controller as you carry on playing, and so never again will you have to stop your gaming as you search high and low for those elusive batteries around the house (eventually taking the batteries out of the TV remote). At around £10-£15 for the cable and charge pack it is a fairly decent price for something that will save quite a bit of money on batteries in the future. It also charges fairly quickly and so you can remove the cable and have your wireless controller...

Uniross 1 Hour AA and AAA battery charger

Advantages: Easy to use with built in intelligent system
Disadvantages: Odd exterior design

...Having had a previous Uniross charger for several years which had provided a stirling service until it was dropped and broken, I wanted to stay with a manufacturer I knew and felt comfortable with. After hunting down several models I narrowed it down to this 1 hour charger (model no. AAB04541-3) which charges both AA and AAA batteries, either two or four at a tiime. It will also charge either Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. It comes with a mains plug charger adaptor (100-240v) and a lead for plugging into your car cigar lighter socket. The Uniross 1 Hr Charger also has a built in intelligent charger system to save over loading the batteries which is a useful feature when one may tend to walk off and forget you have left some batteries charging. The 1 hour charging time is a little subjective depending on what power batteries you are...

Review of Uniross Sprint 1h - Battery charger 4xAA/AAA - included batteries: 4 x AA type NiMH 2500 mAh

Good battery charger for it's price

Advantages: Charges quickly, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Doesn't feel too strong... Not much of a problem.

...I bought this so that I wouldnt' have to keep paying for batteries all the time for my camera. Most battery chargers cost a lot more than this one did (I bought this one for about £12, from Amazon), so it was good to get a deal on it. The package includes the charger itself, 4 AA batteries and a car adapter, so you can charge your batteries in the car. The batteries are easy to insert, there are two spring-loaded extensions that spring out. These are so you can charge AAA batteries as well, and they fold away when you're charging AA batteries. I find that charging batteries doesn't take very much time at all, I just leave them in for a short while and after a short while the red light turns green to show that the charge is complete. The build of the charger doesn't seem very strong, it feels rather plasticky. However, I haven't had...

Hahnel NiMh 2350mAh AA Rechargeable Batteries

Advantages: Long Lasting, Durable, Cost Effective, Colour Coded
Disadvantages: None as yet !

...manual and they recommended rechargeable NiMH batteries. I had a battery charge already and in order to be able to financially continue my new pastime, I decided to invest in 4 New Hahnel NiMh 2350mAh AA Rechargeable Batteries. (NiMH - Nickel Metal Hydride) Hahnel was not a name I was familiar with, so I did a little research - they are part of hähnel industries ltd. Who manufacture accessories for the camera and camcorder market. The company is one of the leading manufactures of power products for camcorder and digital cameras. They are known for their innovative products, and have been in business for over 44 years. Sounded good to me, I went back on Ebay and found these reasonably priced at £6.59 for pack of four ('Buy Now' ). I sent off a cheque and batteries duly arrived a couple of days later. The new Hahnel batteries were...
