5Never had a problem  May 19, 2010
I saw the negative comeents and read the good ones as well. As with anything electronic, there are going to be ones that work and those that don't. It may be a quality control issue. I have had this unti for almost three years at work and it is used consistently. I have never ahd a problem. It does what it is designed to do, recharge batteries. I use the batteries in a digital camera for ID photos and fr a flash unit. Again, never had a problem with the baterries performing and lasting a reasonable amount of time. Considering the cost of constantly buying more replacement baterries, I'll take this any day. If your cost analysis says something diferent, then you should do what's best for you. Even replacing the charger every couple of yearsis more cost effective than buying batteries over the same period of time.

2degrades over time  Mar 09, 2010
This charger worked really well for the first year or so I owned it. Now I am finding that it only charges batteries 30%-- and I'm not talking about the same old batteries I've had (which have only seen maybe 5 or so charges)... This happens even with brand new rechargeable cells. I've tried experimenting with charging 4 at a time vs 8, and have not seen a difference. It seems to recognize that some batteries are charged more than others when activated but does not fully charge them anymore. I'm going to give it one more shot to see if it can at least handle 1 cell at a time before throwing it in the dumpster. I don't think I've even come close to matching my investment in rechargeable batteries yet... I wish I would have just bought disposables...

5no problems here  Dec 14, 2009
I don't write many of these but I saw the bads one and had to share my experiance. We have a 1 year old child and were going through batteries like crazy. We bought one of these in the hopes it will help. I must say buying the charger and batteries in addition is not cheap but helps save money in the end.

The screen to tell you how charged the batteries are is great. The batteries last almost as long as a regular battery. I remember as a kid (i'm 29) that recharable batteries were really bad, they would die on pretty much the same day. But that is no longer the case. We liked the charger and batteries so much we bought a second charger and all we use is recharables now. We use AA,C,D and i'm about to buy more AA do to the need and am going to try the 9V for the portable radio.

I have not tried any other large rechargers but I havn't had a need to. The quality is the same as others I have seen at the store, constructed with hard plastic and charges them quick. It's easy to open and close and using it is self explanatory.

All in all a great product and a money saver we love both of ours and have had them for over 2 years. If I needed another charger I would go right to this one.

4Gee, mine works really well.  Nov 16, 2009
I've had this charger at work for several years and it works great. Especially like how it tells you if the batteries are no good. Was just going to order one for home and just read all these nasty reviews. However, I have 3 chargers at home that are completely worthless. I only use rechargeables on our digital camera so it's always a guessing game to determine what's broken, the camera, the batteries or the charger. Often, have purchased brand new batteries that are duds straight out of the package. Was just talking about this with my husband, grateful, for the time being anyway, that car batteries don't malfunction like this. Well, guess I have to research chargers... Perhaps this product got cheapened, like the Mr. Coffeemaker I just bought and returned!
