Product Review: Energizer Recharger 15-Mintue Charger & battery package
Summary: 5 Stars
I was looking for a way to reduce battery usage cost with my new X-Box 360 as the controllers were burning through batteries at a rather steep rate. After reading the reviews of this product on Amazon I checked pricing and ordered from Amazon.
To my delight this battery recharger is all I expected and more. Also it came packaged with four AA LiMeH batteries, just what I needed for my two controllers.
The charge time on the new batteries was < 30 mintes with recharge times on two batteries < 15 mintues. When the recharged batteries are left in the charger for a bit after charging is completed they cool down to room temperature quickly.
The charger is quite compact and stylish in design. Indeed there is a bit of sound from the cooling fan but it is hardly noticible and in no way objectionalbe, IMO.
A nice feature of the charger is that the electrical contacts are designed so that it's impossible for the charger to apply power to the battery if it's inserted with wrong polarity, a very nice feature indeed.
The batteries last about a week of heavy usage in my X-Box controllers before needing the amazingly quick recharge. So far they have been recharged a half-dozen times.
I strongly recommend this charger & battery package to anyone who wants the saving and convenience of less frequent battery replacement along with a quick recharge.
Product Review: Energizer charger - ruins batteries
Summary: 1 Stars
When I first charged batteries using this charger I noticed the batteries were hot when I took them out. This is a sure sign of over-charging. I wrote to Energizer and they asked me to send it back to them ($12 postage). When I got the new one in the mail - same thing.
After over-charging the batteries several times, the effective life of the batter was less than half. Eventually batteries were not working at all.
This is a poor design and shows me that Energizer engineers do not understand the charging principles of secondary (rechargeable) batteries.
Product Review: Fast Charger! Works great!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the fastest charger I could find & Amazon had it the cheapest. Also, it was a name brand, which I like to buy for these types of electrical items. It has a fan to cool down the batteries which get pretty hot during charging. I am very satisfied with this product.
The only negative is that it is fairly bulky for travel use & it comes as 2 pieces - one is the actual charger and one is the AC cord, which has a large block as the plug.
