The batteries seem to be performing better now, but I haven't done any testing to see by how much. It senses when the batteries are charged and turns off, it has a built-in fan to keep the batteries cool. So I got this thinking it was a good deal, but when I got it home and started using it, the first few charges were weak-sauce. The charger is great, though. It is well-designed and functional. It would only take about 4 pics using a flash per charge. I know the batteries need conditioned first, but that seemed a little low to me.
I tried the charger with another set of duracel NIMH batteries and the charger is working fine. I am not able to take more than 60 to 70 photos using these batteries. The batteries are really in bad condition. Even if its completely drained its not charging for more than 5 to 10 minutes and so its not possible to use it even for a single day in my camera.
Great product. I have other battery chargers but they take all night to charge the batteries. This does it in less than 30 minutes.
Don't mess with other brands, stick with this and you won't be disappointed. Bought a different brand as a gift and they threw it out as it quit working not long after using it.Long story short, house burnt down, lost this item and when I got a new camera, right away I purchased this again. I purchased this recharable set and used it for quite some time. Never had a problem.sometimes the batteries charged in less time then stated.
Recommend you use only Duracell batteries in the charger. Great charger, works exactly as advertised. I tried to charge non-Duracell batteries in the charger with limited success.
