Tenergy Tenergy T9688 Universal LCD Battery Charger + 8 D Size 10000mAh NiMH Rechargeable Batteries

this works well with the same brand batteries, also works with the Amazon Basic rechargeable NIMH batteries, the charger has the ability to discharge batteries, for a full recharge

Battery life is very short. And you must take the batteries out the charger once they are charged because they discharge quickly.

This set comes with 8 rechargeable batteries. The charger can handle all size batteries besides the D’s it comes with. Tenergy’s customer service is outstanding. I contacted them due to the time it was taking to charge the batteries, I thought it was taking too long. I had set the unit to discharge then recharge batteries which was the cause of the length in time. The batteries came charged which I neglected to verify. Customer service was so patient with me assured me all was well and working as is it should. Using the batteries in camping lanterns and they are working great! Highly recommend this unit.

With rising prices on batteries, we were going through a lot of money replacing D-size batteries in six LED flicker flame faux candles that we burn for 5 hours every day. This Tenergy unit and same brand batteries seems to be working well. We are seeing about a month between charges, so that means that, at least when the batteries are new, we are getting 150 hours of use from a charge. We have been through two charge cycles at this point. If we start to realize far fewer hours from the batteries too soon, I will update this review. It does take a surprisingly long time to charge batteries in the charging unit, and you can only charge 4 at a time. So if your application requires fast recharging, you might look at another option.

A great way to save money on batteries
