Title: Battery Chargers - Talk to me
Post by: vRStu on September 26, 2010, 05:11:21 pm

Gonna start using rechargeable batteries around the house and am looking for a well recommended charger.

What ya got and why is it good/bad??

This one is in the frame so far - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Duracell-Multi-Battery-Charger-CEF22/dp/B001GXVZFY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1285516360&sr=8-1-catcorr

Thanks

If you want a Rolls-Royce charger then you want one that can condition batteries. This:

is the prefered option in long distance cycling circles.  But I freely admit that you'd have have to be using a /lot/ of batteries to invest in one.

This might be a cheaper option:

That Hama one is good value, especially as it includes 4 decent batteries.
