With four cells the charger will halve the charge speed and it takes a bit more than 2½ hour to charge 2000mAh eneloops. Sometimes the charger will report error on a full cell, this time I got it started, but only for a short time. The AAA is handled fine and the charger uses a lower current. It do also terminate fine with the Pro and powerex cells. The charger uses a fairly high current (But not too high for normal NiMH cells) and terminates on -dv/dt.Ĭharging two 2000mAh cells did not take 45 minutes, but nearly 80 minutes! With 4 cells it will time share the charge circuit between them, halving the charge rate.Power consumption when idle is 0.25 watt.When not powered it will discharge with less than 0.2mA.Faults, like putting full batteries in the charger, will make the red led flash.The charger has the typically two level slots used for AA and AAA batteries. When charging is done they change to green. The led is red while charging and will flash on error. the charger can only charge two or four batteries at a time. The only user interface is two red leds, one for slot #1 & #2 and one for slot #3 & #4, i.e. The charger is foldable, it can only charge when open (Batteries will not fit when closed). The charger is designed with a replaceable plug, but only one is supplied. The pack contained the charger, a instruction sheet and some low capacity batteries. As can be seen on the pack the charger needs 45 minutes to charge batteries, but this is only valid if you got some special low capacity cells. I bought this charger from duracelldirect.dk This is a fairly fast charger, but the specified 45 minutes is not correct!
