5.0 out of 5 stars Much, Much Better than Rayovac 15-minute Charger !, October 17, 2005

I will only state a Few Important Points as there are tons of reviews on it already. First, YES, it really WORKS in 15 MINS and it is NOT NOISY to Boot (vs the Rayovac 15-minute charger that sounds like an airplane about to take off). And most importantly, it charges ANY RECHARGEABLE "AA" Batteries ! Having briefly owned the Rayovac 15-minute charger which requires EXPENSIVE, SPECIFICALLY Designed "AA" Batteries, you will save TONS of Money with the Energizer 15-Minute Battery Charger. Believe it or not, I just took it for granted that I would have to buy SPECIAL, Energizer Batteries (as I have 2x 7 MP Cameras that USE 4x AA Batteries EACH )as a Spare Set. I'm THRILLED knowing that I don't.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as it seems, October 31, 2006

At first this thing was great, in 20 minutes (not 15) it would charge the batteries. The problems came later when batteries started showing up as "bad" according to the charger, even brand new ones. A few at first then a lot more. I have other travel chargers that would charge the "bad" batteries over 8 hours and they would work fine. Often after this the Energizer charger would charge batteries previously identified as "bad." After about a year I discovered that the charger was destroying the batteries. New and old, they would end up bad after a few cycles through this charger, so that even the slow chargers would not charge them. Many times the charger would not charge them at all, just wait 20 minutes and turn green as if they were done. Not good when you discover dead "charged" batteries while taking pictures on vacation. I'd recommend going with slower chargers, inconvenient as they are. The super fast charge time has destroyed a few dozen expensive NiMH batteries. I'm looking for one that'll charge a dozen at once....if they make one that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy This Charger!, December 11, 2005

Bought this to charge batteries for a Canon A-95 digital camera. Awesome performance! On one charge I've shot 170 pictures at max resolution, used the screen to review pictures, used the flash and the batteries were still going strong! Recharge is 15 minutes flat. The batteries get warm when recharging, so the charger has a fan to keep them cool.
