Maha Powerex MH-C801D Smart Charger, One Hour AA (LR6) / AAA (LR3) 8-Cell

Muy buen producto, super recomendado.

Fantástico cargador para profesionales, poco más se le puede añadir. . . . . . . . . . .

Eccellente prodoto, senza contro indicazioni. Capace di rigenerare anche batterie quasi spente o inattive da tanto tempo. Prodotto consigliato in quanto permette di risparmiare anche sul costo dell'acquisto degli accumulatori, prolungandone di fatto la loro durata nel tempo.

I work as an independent filmmaker and have tons of gear that needs batteries. Specifically my audio gear is eating up AA all day long. The sound recorder takes 8 AA inside and each wireless Transmitter and Receiver use 4 each. So 8 for the recorder and 16 for the 4 wireless systems. Even with the 2800mha batteries, they won't last a whole shooting day, so it's best to replace in the middle of the day or so. (Lunch) This charger just hammers the juice back into the batteries faster than any other charger I've seen. In fact, I was producing a feature and hired a sound guy. The poor guy kept going back to his 4 Battery charger to see if his batteries were charged. After I saw him panicked, I asked him if he needed help. He was worried about running out of batteries for his wireless units. I happened to have my charger and took it out. Popped his batteries in and in less than 30 mins they were charged. He was amazed. Couldn't believe how fast this thing was. He certainly took the name down and I bet he bought one the next day. Pros: FAST Charger (not many others out there that charge this fast. Some say fast but they do 2-3hrs. This baby is fast) 8 Bays (the ability to charge 8 batteries at a time is super helpful) Individual Bays (you don't need to charge 2 at a time as some older chargers needed) Soft Charge (with the soft charge feature you are able to recondition batteries that were fully discharged and bring them back to life) Removable power cord. (I see some chargers that have power cords that can't be removed. Harder to store that way) Cons: LCD display is weak, no backlight and hard to see at certain angles. Would be nice to have a much better display. Not a fan of the curvy nature of the design. Would rather have something square that was easier to store and stack. Price (can't complain too much as I'm sure the electronics are more expensive to be able to charge fast. and well worth the money for the speed) The Pros completely outweigh the Cons. This is a very good charger and I highly recommend it. I bought it so long ago, I couldn't even see it on my order history so I wasn't able to be a verified buyer, but all these years and it's still working fine. I don't use it all the time, only when I have a film shoot. In fact I'm replenishing my AA supply of rechargeable batteries. I'm buying (24) AA 2800mha from Soxono and was thinking about buying another one of these so I could charge 16 at a time, but truth is that it charges fast enough that it's not needed. Specially since I'll have about 48 batteries in total. I can charge them all the night before and can probably go the entire day without needing to charge. Hope this helped someone on the fence about getting this expensive but powerful charger. If you need the speed, it's totally worth it.

Update: Oct 06, 2021 After reporting the dead on arrival issue to both Amazon and supplier. I got a replacement within a few days. And this time, the charger works as it should. I'm happy now. I open the box and plug in all the cables but nothing happens. Further checking find that the green power light on the power supply does not light up. I use another good AC cord but same issue. I contact Amazon and the manufacturer tech support. I'll update later to see what's the result.
