Cons!
- Not autovolt.
- Not indicated in the instruction manual that its 110v.
- Only in the adaptor that says 110v but its pretty small to notice.

Otherwise this is an awesome charger. I just have to repair the blown adaptor

Great review! I love rechargable batteries– very frugal! I have used them for years.

Nice review. The Energizer 15 Minute Battery Charger may work pretty okay however you cold expect diminished performance over time from the batteries if used in high-drain devices. Hopefully, competition will eventually deliver some truly high performance rechargeable cells.

I had that same charger for a year, and the longer I used it, the less it worked. By the end of the year, my batteries didn’t last longer than a few hours in my camera (used often, as I have four kids). For less-enery-sucking devices, it’s probably fine, but I have yet to find rechargables that really do the job well for electronics.

Thanks. I’m thinking Christmas presents already :) Makes it easy – when a good idea jumps in front of me, I tend to take it and run. Then Christmas shopping is soon done :)

Thanks Lynnae. With three young kids, we go through batteries like crazy and have had little luck with rechargeble batteries. I can’t wait to try it oug.

There really weren’t any cons that I could see. Some of the reviews on Amazon said it didn’t seem to be compatible with other brands of batteries, but I’ve always used Energizer, so it wasn’t a problem for me.

Normally you post pros and cons….
Was there nothing to post on the negative side of this???

I’m in the market for one – so tell all :)

Ah! I’ve been looking for a solid, simple solution for battery charging for about 3-4 years. Thank you!
