Review on ⚡ MaximalPower Universal Ultra Smart Charger FC997: Effortlessly Charge Alkaline, NiMh, NiCd, Li-ion AA, AAA, C, D, 9V Battery Cells by Marcel Snoddy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Really great universal charger at the moment. The best I've seen.

This is a really good charger, extremely versatile like no other. Well, except for 1 stamp which has been withdrawn. nitecore makes a quality charger but for some inexplicable reason they have ruled out D batteries! (Cs ok, wtf?) This one works great with whatever I put in it, and it auto-detects and charges pretty quickly without overheating the battery. I have tested alkaline batteries: AA, AAA, C, D, NiCad Cs, NiMH AAA, AA, C, D and Li-Ion 18650 and 16350 (with seal). The only problem is that they don't work with dead batteries. Well, so it's necessary to add a small neodymium magnet to the top of the battery (or use some other spacer). I really like the spring mechanism. It's strong, but it won't bend the metal when you pull it back or resist because you apply torque to the mechanism. Feels high quality. Time will tell if it holds up, but so far so good.

Pros
  • MaximalPower Combo Batteries
Cons
  • Long delivery time
