PanasonicBQ-CC65AKBBA Super Advanced eneloop pro and eneloop 4-Position Quick Charger with LCD Indicator Panel and USB Charging Port, Black

If you use rechargeable batteries YOU NEED THIS THING! I’ve been using eneloop batteries for 10 years or so. They work great at first of course, so I bought more for pretty much everything that uses batteries. Unfortunately, all I had was the cheep charger you get with the 4 battery pack that comes with a charger. Worked great until the lights at the bottom start blinking under the batteries. I know that means the batteries are going bad, but they lasted for a while when I put them in remotes and stuff like that, so I kept using them. Then it got to the point where I was replacing them every other day and MOST of them were flashing. So I bought one of these rechargers so I could actually diagnose the individual batteries to find out which ones were just plain dead. Game changer!! First it told me several of the batteries were pretty much dead (as I expected), but it has a feature that allows you to completely discharge up to 4 batteries at a time, and then recharge them in one go. It took 4 hours or so on some of them, but now that I threw out the ones I actually now know for sure were bad, and reconditioned the rest, my devices are all working so much longer since I don’t have bad batteries in the mix with good ones. I know it’s a bit pricey, but I wish I had bought this thing with my first set of batteries. As far as I can tell, it works with any rechargeable battery. I would absolutely recommend this!

Worth the extra money. Push the Refresh button and the unit discharges the batteries, then charges them to full. This helps longevity and should allow full discharge during use. I used this setting on some older batteries I have that would not last very long. They are working much better now.

Works well, love being able to see a read out. Just wish the manufacturer would have integrated the plug into the unit like another product instead of being corded...but still worth it.

Great charger. Nice size and the batteries fit well. This one charges my white and black Eneloope's and shows battery stats while doing so. Have been using it regularly for about 4 months with no problems. Seems like a tough little charger that should last for a long time.

So much better than the standard charger. Many more features and a very informative display. Flawless, except for being a bit large.

This charger is fast! Coming from experience with LaCrosse BC-700 the speed of charging is night/day. The LaCrosse is still used but I just needed to charge / refresh more batteries at a time (the LaCrosse is also 4-battery capacity). Originally, I was just thinking to get an 8-battery capacity at the same rate. LaCrosse refresh can take days. This one takes overnight. Now this new charger is my primary one, and the LaCrosse is a backup. The only feature I like on the LaCrosse which I don't have on this new one is the ability to set modes for each battery. This Panasonic is all or nothing, meaning it will charge or refresh ALL batteries placed in it. The LaCrosse can set Charge, Refresh, Discharge modes for each battery which is really nice. Hence the 4/5 rating for me. Still would recommend since it works so fast!

Works well with Amazon and Energizer rechargeable batteries

This charger works as designed and the digital readout screen is a plus.
