Item Description
This high tech universal battery recharger can recharge conventional alkaline disposable batteries as well as rechargeable batteries. Once charging is complete it will automatically switch to trickle charge mode. so it saves on electricity and keeps the batteries at peak readiness. This battery charger also charges the batteries in independent bays so you can charge a 9V, AA, C and D type battery all at the same time !!
Don't throw away disposable batteries; recharge them!!

Why buy this charger ?
This charger will save you money in the long run :
An example: A set of 4 Alkaline batteries lying around in the house when recharged 8-10 times will recover the cost of this charger.
Additional Info:
Each battery is optimised by removing any leftover charge before charging starts. The built-in microprocessor can distinguish between AAA, AA, C, D and 9V batteries.
Once charging is complete it will automatically switch to trickle charge mode. Thus it saves on electricity and keeps the batteries at peak readiness.
A NOTE REGARDING 9V and DISPOSABLE ALKALINE BATTERY CHARGING: This charger is suitable only for charging NiMh 9V batteries. There is no LCD / LED display while charging the 9V batteries. The 9V will get charged in 8-10 hours. When charging disposable alkaline batterys please make sure the switch is flicked to RAM setting.
Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. I am interested in this charger and have 2 questions. 1) How does it tell when it reaches full charge and switches to trickle charges? Does it have a negative delta V function? Does the display change when it changes from full charge to trickle charge? 2) If I wish to charge half-charged NiMH batteries without discharging first, can I do this, or does it discharge all batteries first before charging? thanks.
A.
Hi Thank you for the Q. 1) When fully charged the LCD display will stop and it is in trickle charge mode. Yes - it has negative delta V function. 2)It will directly start charging NiMH and alkaline batteries. It will discharge only the NiCd batteries before recharging to prevent memory effect.
Q.
Hi. Will this item actually charge my disposable alkaline batteries?
A. Yes, this charger will charge your disposable alkaline batteries to 75% to 90% of their capacity. In other words it reconditions them. It makes available the dormant charge within these batteries. You can recharge them upto 30 times depending on the quality of the battery. This charger is not effective if the battery has been drained for over a long period (eg. Wall clock battery).
Recharge status will also depend on the internal chemistry / brand.
It is best to charge the alkaline batteries for 24 hours even though the GREEN light indicates full charge.
Q. Hi. Can this charger charge different sizes of battery at the same time?
A. Yes. The microprocessor monitors each charging bay individually. Also one can charge any number (one to four) of batteries and different types of batteries ( AA, AAA, C or D) at the same time provided they are of same chemistry (eg- all alkaline or all NiMh). Each battery is charged individually according to its current discharge level. All you need to do is select the slide setting according to battery type- NiMh, NiCd or Alkaline AND then simply insert that type of battery for charging.
