Customer Reviews of Energizer Compact AA/AAA Battery Charger
Customer Review: Ridiculously useless if you don't change batteries every day
Summary: 1 Stars
I just pulled four batteries out of the charger and put them in my camera, and the camera reported that they were dead. The batteries are brand-new Energizer 2500mAh and the charger is brand-new. The batteries and charger have worked for about a month or so, no problems.
Then why aren't the batteries charged? The huge gaping problem is, as far as I can tell, NOT that the batteries have suddenly gone bad, but that the charger charges batteries, then stops charging them after a certain time to prevent overcharging, then--THAT'S IT. From then on the charger does NOTHING, unless you unplug it and plug it back in. So in other words, once the charger has fully charged the batteries, then the charger in effect very helpfully DRAINS them until they're dead. If you switch out your batteries every day, then this is not a problem, but if you don't need them for a few days or weeks at a time like me, then you're going to have to deal with the baffling paradox of how it is possible to get dead batteries from a live, plugged-in battery charger.
How is this useful? When you get your batteries out of a charger, you expect them to be fully charged, am I wrong? The charger apparently doesn't have something called a 'trickle charger', which keeps the batteries at full capacity. I haven't bought a battery charger in ten years, are you telling me that after all this time, this is still not a standard feature??? That's what I get for expecting technology to improve.
Correct me if I'm wrong, people. Am I using it wrong? You put batteries in the right way, plug it in, leave it alone, and later you come back and get your freshly charged batteries, right, that is the correct way to operate this complex equipment, right? There's not more to it than that? Okay, just checking.
My recommendation: Buy Energizer or Duracell rechargeable batteries with the highest mAh rating you can find, because the batteries themselves are good, then FLING AWAY the included charger, and then buy ANOTHER NiMH charger from another company--one that doesn't even offer a charger without a built-in trickle charging feature.
