 Best of Show July 13, 2008
Keith Thompson (St. Paul MN USA)
I use AA batteries specifically for my digital camera. It was most annoying to have a photo moment happen, and turn on my camera to see 'Replace Batteries' instead of what I wished to shoot. I did a lot of research and this combination received the highest reviews. My experience bears this out. The batteries hold charge for up to 4 times longer than my previous (Brand name and expensive) rechargeable batteries. The charger itself is compact and versatile, able to quick-charge only 2 batteries at a time, 4 at once, or to drain and recharge the batteries, which is recommended to extend battery life. Well worth paying a small premium for.
Great Battery Charger July 7, 2008

This is a great battery charger. Highly recommend it. The reconditioning feature puts some new life in old batteries. Batteries will last longer than with most other chargers.
 Hard to tell?? June 4, 2008

Bought this charger based on ratings and comments on how well it charges NiMH to capacity and its conditioning cycle. It charges fine but I honestly haven't seen much difference in the flash recharge time on my camera (which is why I bought it in the first place). The one negative comment I have is that it only charges batteries in pairs... So when the battery on my MP3 player runs out, I need to waste a charge cycle on another battery to get the MP3 battery charged.
Great Charger January 15, 2008

I have been using the PowerEx battery charger for the past year and a half with great results. This charger has performed without any issues to date.
While you do have to charge two (2) batteries at a time, and may not be a true 'smart' charger, I have not had any problems with charging. I started out with four (4) AA and four (4) AAA rechargable batteries. I rotate through the sets in pairs to keep a pair fully charge and in reserve.
I have just increased my count of batteries (in both sizes) to address the devices that require an odd number of batteries.
Good luck.
 Reliability problems; also, not "smart" contrary to claim September 29, 2007

I agree with the observations of "the engineer" elsewhere in these reviews. I too am an engineer, and I concur with his observations about the limitations of this Maha design.
As for my personal experience, the first unit I received died within 5 days. I received VERY cheerful and FAST replacement direct from Maha PowerEx no questions asked. However, the second unit died as well, after just a couple of months of not-so-heavy use.
I have given up on this charger. Despite what "editor's choice" might say, this charger isn't "the One".
Truth be told, finding a good charger that is smart, world-power friendly, and inexpensive seems to be nigh unto impossible. Someone let me know if they find one.
