Great Charger January 27, 2010 T. Esposito (St. Lou) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you are looking for the best AA/AAA Battery charger - then look no where else. I have had no less the 5 "other" battery Chargers - this is by far the Best. It takes care of refreashing/recharging and gives you a read out of what is happening. I wish I would of know about this earlier but now I do and I will be adding another one to the house as we are always going through Batteries. This is my way of cutting cost and helping the enviroment (LIL bit). Folks - JUST BUY THIS CHARGER - IT WORKS GREAT!!
Cheers,
Another Meltdown, trying the BC-700 instead. January 22, 2010 Joe Nintendo 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
As with many other reviewers, I had a meltdown after only a few days use. One of the LCD screens turned black and the 1 position button sank down. I was lucky enough to be home when it happened, but one of my batteries was already very hot when I interrupted the charge. I'm not sure if the battery would have just exploded, or if a fire would have started, but I'm happy I didn't find out. Needless to say I returned the charger and asked for a refund rather than an exchange (which Amazon was very good about).
The only comparable alternative chargers seem to be the Maha MH-C9000 and the La Crosse BC-700. I looked into the Maha MH-C9000, but the price and clunky user interface didn't impress me. The La Crosse BC-700, however, has the same user interface and the BC-9009, and I wasn't able to find any reports of meltdowns on the internet. The only (possible) downside is the lack of extras and a lower charge rate, but since I already have rechargeables, and prefer to charge them around 200 mAh, the BC-700 should suit me fine.
Great for Wii controllers and cameras January 21, 2010 Colorado Dad (Colorado United States) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
We use this to recharge our Wii controllers, it has done what is expected. I had other batteries I suspected were dead, and this device confirmed that they were bad cells.
Good gaget to have for AA alone. This only charges 4 at a time, but can do either AA or AAA.
Glad to have it.
good charger January 21, 2010 Peter D. Jansen (Lousiana, USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I like the display of the charger and the funktions where promising
I also have an Ansmann energy8 - which I prefer - It doesn;''t have the display but it ich charging recicling Accus, where the La Crosse is failing
both together are a good combination
and the price and size of the La Cross is great.
Inexplicable bad engineering - DO NOT BUY January 18, 2010 Name Withheld 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The 1-4 buttons under the batteries are plastic and connect to a potentially hot contact underneath, which can cause them to melt and become inoperable.
Other than the fatal flaw, a quite good unit. Mine died after about three weeks.
