5.0 out of 5 stars Sanyo VAR-L40U Compact Battery Charger does the job well
It's compact, well designed and easy to use, plus it charges the batteries rapidly - a full charge in an hour or less and the batteries seem to last all day, unless subjected a to a lot of flashes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware-you get the European Cord
Although the item is titled VAR-L40U which is the US version with a standard US plug--you get the VAR-L40 which has the European version plug--useless in the USA. The manufacturer puts a sticker on the box which says VAR-L40U but it is really the European plug. I tried 2 times to purchase the item with the same negative result. Don't blame Amazon, it's the...

4.0 out of 5 stars Received Correct US Plug, November 29, 2007
This review is from: Sanyo VAR-L40U Compact Battery Charger for Sanyo DB-L40AU Lithium-Ion Battery (Electronics)
I received this product with the Correct U.S. Power Plug. I ordered this directly from Amazon. The charger is very small and works perfectly. I only gave it four stars due to the Long cord that is attached instead of having Prongs that just fold down on the back. That would truly make this a compact charger.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware-you get the European Cord, June 7, 2007
This review is from: Sanyo VAR-L40U Compact Battery Charger for Sanyo DB-L40AU Lithium-Ion Battery (Electronics)
Although the item is titled VAR-L40U which is the US version with a standard US plug--you get the VAR-L40 which has the European version plug--useless in the USA. The manufacturer puts a sticker on the box which says VAR-L40U but it is really the European plug. I tried 2 times to purchase the item with the same negative result. Don't blame Amazon, it's the manufacturer. I tried another vendor and wound up with the same issue. After many calls to Sanyo, I finally found someone who can send me the US cord--I hope it works with the base. To be continued.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sanyo VAR-L40U Compact Battery Charger for Sanyo DB-L40AU Lithium-Ion Battery (Electronics)
Is multi voltage compatible, but cord included didn't work with my house outlets. I was able to substitute another cord from another charger.

Cord included appears to be CEE 7/16 plug.
