Verdict Damn quick charger which allows me to charge real fast (Even the day before ON event , im able to charge up ALL my 16pcs of batteries and start flashing off within 2-3 hours! CHARGING TIME TEST Totally drain out Camelion 2700 ~ 1 hour 10 min Totally Drain out Energizer 2500 ~ 50min - 60min Pro - Very Fast - Light - Alot of different country head for the brick - German Technology - JumpStart feature (Revive your old battery) <-- I think it works because i pop in my old 1200mah GP cells and it can charge it as well) - My oldschool GP Charger will not charge. - AA, AAA Charging - Nice design (look like car dashboard) CONS - Battery Gets hot (I think its normal for fast chargers) - Should have true % instead of 4 level. hehe Not much of cons... There's another newer model BC-907 which has even more features. But not that nice looking. Both are 60min fast charging. Should be as good. Camelion battery are cheap as well. |
