Comments:
This u-charger battery charger is compact and light. Using the adjusters on the back of the charger, adjust the position of the contacts, so they align with the positive and negative terminals of your Li-ion or Li-polymer battery. Release the moveable part of the battery, which will firmly clamp the battery in position, and commence charging. The charger is clever enough to sort out which terminal is positive and which is negative for you.

Charges almost all camcorder, digital camera, mobile phone and pda batteries. Works for all 3.6/3.7Volt & 7.2/7.4Volt Li-Ion & Lo-Polymer battery packs where the contacts are on the same side of the battery so that they can be brought into electrical contact with the charging terminals. Exceptions are the Sony NP-BD1, NP-BG1, NP-FD1, NP-FT1, and NP-FR1 - these batteries are just too clever for their own good!

The u-charger battery charger has a set of charging contacts for one or two pieces of AA or AAA batteries such as AA NiMH 2000mAh, AA NiMH 2300mAh, 2700mAh and AAA NiMH 800MaH

It will also charge the new Sanyo eneloop ultra-low self-discharge "always - ready-to-use" AA size batteries look here....... and AAA size batteries look here.......

This intelligent charger (with Electronic Charge Control) incorporates automatic end-of-charge detection.

Need a spare or a replacement a/c power adapter? Consider our 12 Volt 1Amp SM adapter available here.

If you do not need a Lithium-ion charger, you might like the X-Press 1000 Ultra fast charger or the CR898 or the EN60 Sanyo eneloop travel battery charger.
