This is my favorite charger! I have a small toddler, and (even though I do buy mostly battery free wood toys) we still have plenty that require batteries. rather than wasting so many, it's great to be able to re-charge and re-use them! thus far we've had no problems with batteries loosing their charge or power (as we did with many other chargers). I highly recommend it!

I got 2 for D batteries. They do the job if I charge them twice.
One of the channels is wonkers, but it does work.
The quickest way to ruin rechargeables is to overheat them. These chargers create a lot of heat with the D batteries. I monitor them myself. That pretty much sucks, but I want a lot of life out of my expensive batteries. On the dead D's, they charge until the light goes off, but at that point they ARE NOT fully charged. I unplug and plug back in and the same batteries will charge again for half as much time. So, it either doesn't fully charge, it overheats and shuts off or it doesn't sense the charge. My money is on a less than adequate charge since, after many runs, I can predict the times that the thing will shut off. If it is from heat, then maybe a note in the manual could suggest that after charging a set of D's, cool and charge again.
These are big, heavy and a pain, but they are cheaper and do charge. If I could get a better smart charger for 4 D batteries without breaking the bank, I would. As is, you get what you pay for.

This does what it is intended to do, great if you want the cheapest that can do the job. But I'd spend a few dollars more to get something easier to use.

It worked ok for a short while, but then stopped charging. At first I thought it was the batteries. I tried a different set of batteries, same problem. I ended up buying another charger and all it well.

The Rayovac PS3 Rechargeable Battery Universal Charger will charge any size NiMH battery. This device will recharge up to eight AA or AAA batteries; four C or D batteries; or even a single 9-Volt battery. The PS3 is perfect for high battery usage households, and it is capable of recharging batteries over 1000 times. If your family or business burns through piles of regular alkaline batteries, grab yourself a stack of NiMH rechargeables and the Rayovac PS3, and start saving money. Why Rechargeables
Today's high-drain, electronic devices demand rechargeable NiMH batteries. NiMH batteries actually last longer than alkaline batteries in most high-tech devices and they can generally be recharged up to 500 times. This high-volume rechargeability results in cost-savings that can add up to thousands of dollars. Plus, with Rayovac NiMH batteries, there are no "memory" problems -- recharge your Rayovac batteries any time, even if they are only partially drained.
Usage Tips
- Always charge NiMH batteries before first use
- For maximum performance, charge batteries prior to using if stored for more than one month
- NiMH rechargeable batteries are available in AA, AAA, C, D, and 9-volt sizes
- NiMH batteries can be disposed of with regular trash -- NiMH is safe for the environment
