I found this info below on their site and it sounds like the XP4 should charge 4xNimh not just 2.

"Charge four 10440/14500/14650/16340/17500/17670/18350/18500/18650/18700 Li-ion batteries and AAA/AA/A Ni-MH batteries or two 22650/25500/26650 (3.6V/3.7V)Li-ion batteries and SC/C Ni-MH batteries simultaneously but respectively"

Yes TronPlayer you are right and I am a complete fool! The manual after re-reading it carefully and doing more testing says and I quote "bay 1 and 4 is only suitable for S/SC size Nimh" batteries not that only bay 1 and 4 is for charging Nimh batteries. Bay 1 is the only one that can dis-charge Nimh though. Sorry for being a complete fool.

Thanks for the clarification. I think I'll put this on my to-buy list and plan on using it as a car charger so I'm NEVER without dead batteries.

Good choice! At this stage my only complaint is that I have ran out of batteries to charge

I found it on Fasttech but took a while going page by page!!! You'll find it middle of Page for or try this. http://www.fasttech.com/category/1421/battery-chargers-for-li-ion-ni-mh-ni-cd-lifepo4-an/-/p/4/

Anyone have access to a manual. I was wonder how one selects the current rate. The photos are of little help on that.

Look ok though and includes the 12V adapter which I did not get with my I4 charger. Too bad there is no diagnostics for capacity in the lone discharge slot. Most of us will use at least two cells at a time

XP4 looks nice
