There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
With our two children each having a digital camera (one of which takes 4 x AA, the other on 2 x AA) and our younger son having a Leapster electronic game which takes 4 x AA it was getting very expensive using ordinary batteries.
I've been down the rechargeable battery route before and have old chargers lurking about in my shed, but they never really worked very well.
I like that with this I can discharge and then recharge to eliminate "memory" problems. I also like that I can test the capacity of a battery, and perhaps even better, bring a dead rechargeable back to being a useful battery again, by doing a refresh.
So far, I have just put some ancient NiMh batteries on TEST mode.
The product seems like a nicely made item, and the instructions are fairly clear.
It said in the item description that it is the German version with German transformer and plug, and that a UK travel adapter would be included. Well it was even better than that. The transformer is the same for German and UK markets and like older Blackberry chargers it just has a different "Front" to pop onto the transformer to provide the pins. Sure enough mine had the european pins, but also included were some UK pins, so all I had to do was pop the Euro ones off and pop the UK ones on, so no wobbly adapter for me!
The advertised item was an AccuCell BC-700, what actually arrived was a TechnoLine BC-700, which I believe is the exact same product but with different branding. Anyway, I was pleased, as personally I think I prefer the look of the TechnoLine version.
Excellent service, arrived the next day!!
I would definitely recommend this charger and this supplier to friends and relatives.
I have to say I was actually expecting the charger to be supplied with a UK plug - or at least interchangeable plug modules, as with many mains adapters. Maybe this was my being too optimistic.
No - this very definitely comes with a European plug. And a rather cheap and nasty European to UK plug-in adapter. This all makes for a somewhat clumsy and bulky arrangement, which is not in any way compact. Maybe the product description should have made this more clear - I personally think so. Oh, and despite the product description, it's not branded 'AccuCell' - it's actually branded 'TechnoLine'. The charger supplied is clearly an imported Germany unit. The box text is in German, after all.
Having pondered over whether to return the unit, I got around the problem by recycling an old UK plug module from a Seagate PSU and soldering and glueing it onto the front of the one supplied with this unit, instantly voiding the warranty. But hey, it's a lot more compact now, it still works, and I saved myself a tenner.
The charger itself cannot be faulted. It has multiple charging modes which are simple to select, including a mode to measure the capacity of your cells, which is very useful. You can charge any number of cells at once ranging from 1 to 4, as each bay has its own charging circuit and display. For the money, this is a very sophisticated piece of kit. What it does not have is a super-fast charging mode - however, fast charging will inevitably harm the capacity of your cells over time, so it is not recommended.
I liked the charger so much, I bought another - this time one with a UK adapter.
My advice? Pay the extra for the genuine UK model. I know it costs a little extra, but it's just a much better solution. The charger is excellent.
Apart from that the charger itself is great. I'd rate the UK model 5 stars.
