#9. Can Energizer chargers be used overseas with an adapter?
We do not recommend using our chargers that are designed for US power (120 volts AC at 60 HZ) in foreign countries that have a different power supply. Using overseas voltage adapters can result in permanent damage to charger or wall plug adapter circuitry.
Customer Review: Please don't waste your money!
Summary: 1 Stars
As several other reviewers have stated these batteries start out strong but fade very quickly. For the first 4 or 5 charges they performed brilliantly, powering my digital camera with ease and allowing me to take many photos. Then came the sudden drop in performance. I was lucky to get 10 quick shots off before the batteries died. Now they won't even power the little wireless mouse I use with my laptop, much less power up a digital camera.
I have no idea if there are better alternatives out there but I urge you not to waste your money on these.
Customer Review: Bad Design!
Summary: 1 Stars
The batteries work well, BUT the charger can only charge in multiples of two, making you have to charge more batteries than you need to if you only need to charge an odd number. That's probably bad for the batteries. Many toys etc. now require odd numbers of batteries, and you can't charge odd numbers of batteries! Very disappointing. Also, there's only one battery charge indicator light for all four batteries, so detecting problems in one or two batteries is difficult.Customer Review: DO NOT BUY!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this kit for a work compact digital camera. They seemed to work OK for the first two charges. Then I'd get batteries where only one or two out of four were adequately charged. I'd have to keep swapping the batteries until I found the two strongest. Not sure if its a charger or battery problem, but either way, they're not worth the raw materials they're made of! And no, I didn't have a multimeter at my disposal to check the voltages.Customer Review: Pretty terrible self-discharge rate
Summary: 2 Stars
I have bought approximately 12 of these batteries, and have 2 different Energizer chargers. These batteries are never charged when I reach for them less than a month later. The batteries also don't work in certain high-drain devices, such as a remote controlled car. I am really disappointed in them, and they were pretty expensive.
