The shapely charger can charge up to 8 batteries simultaneously and additionally offers a USB port for the direct charging of mobile phones, tablets, eBook Reader or anything that needs to be charged up via USB. Will you invite less than 8 batteries, which is of course also possible, as long as they are always in pairs inserts. A foldable fixing rail allows to insert both AA cells and AAA cells, you can choose whether you want to charge up to 8 cells of one type, or each up to 4 cells AA and AAA. The LCD display with LED backlight shows exactly which batteries are still in the charging process, and where this has already been completed. As I understand from the previous reviews, it was not just me at the beginning that I was irritated by the indistinct LCD display, until I found that here a protective film is still attached, which are not obvious at first glance as such, , ;-) If you remove these, the loading situation can very well read and follow for each individual cell. Very good, I find that the device has various protection mechanisms to avoid a charge, if accidentally Alkaline or defective cells are inserted. There is also a safety timer and reverse polarity protection, which ensure that the unit shuts down when all batteries are fully charged or if they have been inserted with incorrect polarity. It is the device in a list, where you can read how long need batteries with different capacities for a complete charge.
All in all, you have here a high-quality battery charger, which is with its various extras and security features easy to use and incorrect operation largely rules.
