After a long search, I am now able to find and use content -a friendly, mobile charger with no frills. Batteries (2 or 4 at a time, AA or AAA) and insert plug device. The LED indicates whether the battery charge (red) or finished are / their cargo is received (green). With a charging current of 500mA both the supplied rechargeable batteries as well as those from other manufacturers can be reliably loaded; even if you have a higher capacity (tested with NiMH 2100mAh to 2850mAh of). My flash (Canon Speedlite 580EX) is now rising with more shots at a higher rate to new heights on; especially with the supplied batteries.
