(not a big con though, since the LCD screen makes it pretty much self explanatory)* Similar chargers, but with less functionality and significantly more expensive:http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Charger-Batteries-Lithium-Rechargeable/dp/B001LVHS84/ref=sr_1_11.ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1253390427&sr=1-11[.].http://www.amazon.com/Vivitar-Universal-Panasonic-Camcoder-Batteries/dp/B0026H136K Shows charging time.7. Adjustable contacts for almost any (camcorder, camera, cell phone) lithium battery.2. Shows charging bars and also percentage of charge.6. Charges Lithium and AA/AAA Ni-MH batteries (packaging only states Lithium, but it does charge Ni-MH too)8. Extremely low price (when compared to other similar universal chargers)*Cons:1. AC and Car adapters included.3. Bright white backlighting for LCD.5.
Individual charging channels.8. No user manual.Documentation only consists of double sided paper card packaging, which is what you see in the Amazon pictures. This is a GREAT charger, and it is extremely low priced.Up until this one came out, the Vivitar SC-ALL was the most versatile universal lithium charger.This one blows the Vivitar SC-ALL away.It is more functional, nicer looking, and substantially less expensive than the Vivitar SC-ALL.Pros:1. "Stylus" type tool (used for adjusting contacts) included, and stores in side of charger.4. Sets polarity automatically.8.
The pins are movable to accommodate several different types of batteries, but if you don't know the polarity of each contact on your battery and you charge it wrong the universe could explode. I don't know, it would probably ruin the battery, maybe worse.
This charger does not include Nickel Metal in it's list. My Nickel-Metal Hydride Batteries say they need a recharger that is recommended for them. It may work for all I know, but it is not included so I returned the product.
