EBLUniversal Battery Charger - 8 Bay AA AAA C D Battery Charger for Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries with 2A USB Port, Type C Input, Fast Charging

I bought this back in December 2024 but, I thought I would wait a wee bit before writing a review, just to make sure it would last.As the title says, this really is the best charger I've ever had.It's so easy to use and you can charge different size batteries at the same time. The really great thing is, you can actually see how much charge is in the battery and know when it's fully charged.Will definitely be buying another if I ever need an extra oneHighly recommended.

Uses a separate USB charger/power supply (not included) so cheaper than other chargers. Works perfectly and displays charging progress for each battery, as well as stopping when the batteries are charged up. It appears to deliberately only charge to 80% to maximise battery life, which is fine when you are using rechargable batteries.

Neat & tidy charger, nice to be able to see how much charge is on the batteries (however sometimes this feature doesn't register in all of the ports where batteries are being charged!) It's not the quickest to charge but it's effective & does the job more than adequately.Charger copes with different size batteries & odd quantities (ie you can charge 3 batteries) so all in all a good buy.

Having received a million new toys for my kids at Christmas with varying sized batteries it's very handy (and money saving) to have this charger on hand to avoid tears when the batteries run out. It's really fast and I love the digital display. Our first one had a small fault but I got in touch with the seller and their customer service was excellent and they send out a replacement super fast.

As we've almost entirely replaced all alcaline batteries in our house, our dependency on rechargeable batteries has increased vastly. I already have an EBL charger which plug into the mains but I wanted another charger and thought I would give this USB-powered variant a try.In the box you get:The charging unit, which is capable of charging up to 8 batteries (AAA and AA, C and D). The actual number of batteries you can charge depends upon the physical size of the battery so you will fit 8 AAA or AA cells, four C or four D cells (or a combination thereof).An instruction leaflet which covers the basic operation of the unit clearly and concisely (although it's pretty easy to use anyway, it's always worth a read of the instructions to make sure you haven't missed anything).A short USB-A to Micro-USB which will suite sockets which are close to a surface (those close to a floor or above a kitchen counter etc.)A "Thank You" card from EBL.The charger itself is very compact and lightweight, the LCD displays are clear to read (not obvious in my photos as there was a light source above the camera which washed out the image a bit) and the ability to charge using either Micro USB or USB-C (not both!) is handy now that USB-C is becoming more uniquitous.I loaded the charger with 8 brand new Amazon Basics 2400mah batteries and plugged the charger into a 2A USB output. The charging indicators immediately began to show the charging status and after an hour or so, the unit had entered "maintenance mode" to keep the batteries topped up without stressing them out too much - this is EBL's "Intelligent Battery Detection Technology" which should stress the batteries less and extend their life.Very happy with the charger, especially as I can just plug it in to basically any USB output and charge batteries on the go.

This is a good battery charger. With individual charging you can charge any size or capacity - or even if its half charged or totally flat. I've been averaging 6 to 7 hours to charge from flat. 4 hours and above from half charged.It depends on the batteries capacity. You need a 5 volt 2 amp power adapter. I found that it works very well and far better than a cheep charge all at the same time. After charging for the second time using this charger the batteries work better. That's because it makes sure they charged correctly to get the best out of each cell.If it rejects a battery you can still charge it using a cheep charger but its not worth it. I find any battery it wont charge is genuinely past its usable life. It can be a bit fiddley inserting C or D cell batteries. And if you fill all the spaces getting the middle ones out once they have charged is a bit fiddly.But all in all I have found this to be the best charger I have ever brought. 8 battery capacity or 4 if you use C or D cells. If I hade to be picky its the charging display. From the side and top and looking directly over it you can see the readout. But looking from the spring clip end the readout is very faint. That's because LCD displays are directional. Would I buy another one. You bet. It is for me the bet charger I have had.

The flexibility of this charger - the number and variety of batteries it can charge and its ability to be powered from micro-USB and USB-C makes it a really useful tool.But...I noticed that batteries charged with this charger didn't last as long as I expected, and now I've discovered the reason - it doesn't fully charge the batteries.I have some cordless phones at home which are powered by two AAA batteries. They can be charged on the stands that came with the phones, or I can remove the batteries and use this charger.But, what I noticed is, if I fully charge them with this charger, put them back in the phone and put the phone back on its base, it shows 3 out of 4 bars charged.When I look later, the base has topped up the phone to fully charged.So, flexible and convenient - but you are gonna be using it more often than you expect!
