Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony Super Quick Charger charges four AA or AAA batteries at once to give you power when you need it. The charger is compatible with worldwide voltage ranging from 100 to 240 volts, and it uses an LCD indicator to show how much your batteries are charged. When the display for a battery stops flashing, it's fully charged. The charger comes up with four AA batteries you can use right away. A refresh function lets batteries be charged to their maximum capacity, and an automatic cut-off prevents batteries from overheating due to overcharging. You can take the charger with you whenever you need portable power.

Great Value August 21, 2008

For the price, great unit. I like the individual charge levels. They give you a rough idea of the progress even though the scale is extremely non linear. Charges both AA and AAA 2 or 4 at a time. It probably does 1 or 3, but I just never needed it. Multi-voltage made it perfect for me in 6 different countries.
Compared to other chargers, the downsides are the larger size and the bulky cord.
 Nice charger and comes with 2700MAh AAs too! August 18, 2008
I've done a lot of searching for the best charger under $20 and this seems to be the one. In the past I used a Sanyo travel charger that came with the Sanyo batteries which worked fine, but since I was looking for the new 2700 AAs to add to my old 2500s I stumbled upon this cool charger.
The LCD is a very cool feature that's not just for looks, it's actually functional giving you information about the charge level of each battery. The refresh function is a nice feature too although you should only refresh NiMH batteries every 30 charges to preserve their lifespan. Too much refreshing causes your batteries to not last as long. It has a battery cover which is nice but during charging you should leave it open to prevent hot air being trapped. The charger itself looks very cool with a white glossy finish and green backlit LCD.
As far as charging goes, it works. Charging speed is comparable to my Sanyo charger using same capacity batteries. Since you get the new 2700 AAs with this unit, the price of the charger itself comes out to only around $15.
Does what it is supposed to do August 5, 2008
It does what it says - recharge the batteries fairly quickly. I like the display on the front to know about where in the process it is, and the auto-off feature.
Does everything I need and then some July 24, 2008
Bought this to replace a previous Sony charger that I lost. Works the same with a bit more features, especially like the lcd display which my old one did not have. Display is not an absolute must, but handy for giving me an idea of how much longer batteries need to recharge fully. However, not as convenient as it requires a AC cable, old one had a built in plug.
 Functional but slow July 21, 2008

The recharger does just what it is supposed to do. I like the visible readout of the process as it is proceeding on the LCD. I have another recharger which has a fast and trickle mode. The fast mode may not bring it to full charge, but does provide enough for using the batteries in about an hour. This charger has only a single speed, and takes a few hours to reach full recharge. The Sony machine on the other hand is small and cleanly designed. The 2700 mAmp batteries are great -- much more longlasting than the usual 2000 or 2200 type, and worth perhaps half the cost of the unit.
