Charger help.

[madecov]

I'm considering a new charger for my AA NiMH batteries.

Amondotech has this one. I've seen similar on the web a bit cheaper but this is pretty much what I'm considering.

Is this thing any good?

I've got one ... labeled a Vanson V-6988.

Read Amondotech's description CAREFULLY.
You will wait at least 10 hours to charge a discharged 2500ma battery and it has a 12 hour timer limit.

Mine has acted a little "off" on occassion and I'm not sure why, so it's in the
???? reliability bin. At $35 (plus shipping?), you can do better.

Thanks. I really wanted something that would charge more than just 4 batteries.
I have a 4 battery charger now that also discharges, but it is pretty slow.

Bite the bullet, spend the bucks (only have to do it once unless you become a "chargaholic"). MAHA C808M / C801D / C800S.

Hello madecov:
All of the MAHA in 800 series is a lot better than the one you linked to.

Good advice from Al.
