Eneloop Panasonic BQ-CC17SBA Advanced Individual Battery Charger with 4 LED Charge Indicator Lights, White

Used to have a similar charger for years and years. We loved it, used it well, and it finally quit on us. We tried a few battery chargers, and others have been defective or mediocre… slow-charging, confusing indicator lights, pair requirements, etc. We have definitely not been successful with USB-powered chargers and decided we needed that wall power.This is a solid charger that can be used for a single battery, or two, or three, etc. Most importantly: IT ACTUALLY CHARGES BATTERIES. No doubts! Highly recommend.

More expensive then the generic brands, but it works perfectly.I just couldn't fit AAA batteries in it, so I'm taking one star.

The best charger i ever bought. Am a professional photographer and have used all variety of chargers & almost all brand or rechargable batteries. This charger by far is the most effective and intelligent one. The LED exists, dont worry that its not visible by default. Once you have the battery put in and the charger plugged to a socket, the LEDs light up. Have been using this since a year now and heres few observations:1. I used charge my 2500 MAh batteries for close to 20-24 hours with other old chargers i have (uniross, eveready etc) and i would have to keep a note of it and switch off accordingly (to avoid over charging). Now with this charger, i dont worry about it. This one too takes roughly the same time (if the batteries are completely drained), but the charging stops (LED goes off) as soon as battery is fully charged.2. The LEDs goes off with another set of my 2000 MAh batteries. Not a fault with this charger. It only means that my batteries have only that much juice left. How do i know? I tested the same batteries by charging on my uniross charger for 16+ hours and it still died out within 1 hour of use.3. If you put the batteries on this charger and the LEDs are continously blinking, it means the battery is dead. Its to be thrown away. Tried the same with another set of my cells and found that its completely dead. Although other chargers keep charging the battery with their LEDs ON.Am really very happy with this item and highly recommend it to everyone.

I first purchased in August 2015. Today is October 4, 2023. This charger is still working without any issues. It is not used on a daily basis. It is used like the average household. I use rechargeable batteries for the remotes of three TVs, sound bars, Fire TV remotes, wife's decorations with lights, voltage detector, label makers and other stuff. The only thing I don't user rechargables in is my AC/heating thermostat because the manufacturer recommends not using rechargeable batteries.Pluses are one to four batteries can be charged. Some brands of chargers requires batteries be charged in pairs. AA and AAA can be mixed together while charging. Each battery has its own LED to check the charging status. This charger will stop charging each battery individually when a full charge is reached. This charger can detect a defective battery and will not try to charge it (the LED will blink).This is not the fastest charger on the market, but from my experience it is reliable. If charging speed is your priority then it may not work for you.The product description on the Amazon page says “This charger is optimized for charging eneloop and eneloop pro AA and AAA rechargeable batteries”. This is just marketing. Eneloop is a Panasonic brand. I have a boat load of Amazon Basic batteries and they charge just fine.And last... comply with the safety warning in the instructions to charge only Ni-MH in this charger.
