[QUOTE="LouCioccio, post: 599530, member: 12542"] [FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=1]This is one of the charging units I use: [/SIZE][/FONT]https://www.amazon.com/Powerex-MH-C800S-8-Cell-Smart-Charger/dp/B000LQMKDS/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1483570527&sr=1-11&keywords=smart+AA%2FAAA+battery+chargers Here is a snippet of instructions and modes: Read these instructions carefully and thoroughly before operating this unit. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS • Do not charge batteries other than NiMH or NiCD. They must be able to accept a 1.0A (Standard mode) / 0.5A (Soft mode) rapid charge current. • Do not use the default Rapid Charge mode on batteries rated under 800mAh. To charge them, use the Soft Charging mode (refer to “Soft Charging Mode”). • Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture due to the risk of fire. • Do not operate the charger if it appears damaged in any way. • Always place the battery cells with positive tip facing the top. Incorrect polarity may cause fire or explosion. Observe polarity diagrams located on the charger. • Do not allow the unit to be exposed to direct sunlight. Operate in well- ventilated area. • Do not allow the battery terminals to become shorted. • To reduce the risk of damage to the power cord, always pull by connector rather than the cord. FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS • Eight independent charging slots. Charges 1-8 AA or AAA batteries. • Selectable Rapid Charge (default) and Soft Charge mode. • Recharge in approximately 1 to 2 hours. • Selectable conditioning / rejuvenation cycle. • Worldwide power supply. * Charge time will vary depending upon the brand, capacity, and condition of batteries being charged. VARIOUS MODES This section explains various charging modes and when to use them. To enable each mode, refer to the “Operation” section. Rapid Charge Mode (Default) • Shortest recharging time (approximately 1 to 2 hours). • Suitable for batteries with capacity greater than 800mAh. Soft Charging Mode • Maximizes battery life and performance (recharging time approximately two to four hours). • Suitable for most batteries. • Recommended if recharging time is not critical. Conditioning Mode • A special mode which rejuvenates and cycles batteries. Applies a special initial charge, discharge and recharge cycle which can restore battery performance (requires up to 16 hours to complete). • Conditioning cycle can be used to rescue degraded batteries and exercise infrequently-used batteries. • Recommended once every ten normal charges for NiMH batteries to ensure good performance. OPERATION Rapid Charge Mode (Default) 1. Connect the power supply unit DIN connector to the charger as shown in the figure below. Rapid Charge Current: 1.0A Microprocessor: Eighth-generation MH-NM7008 Powerex Precision Microprocessor Charge Time*:1 to 2 hours (Standard), 2 to 4 hours (Soft) Input Voltage: AC 100-240V 50-60Hz This section explains various charging modes and when to use them. To enable each mode, refer to the “Operation” section. Rapid Charge Mode (Default) • Shortest recharging time (approximately 1 to 2 hours). • Suitable for batteries with capacity greater than 800mAh. Soft Charging Mode • Maximizes battery life and performance (recharging time approximately two to four hours). • Suitable for most batteries. • Recommended if recharging time is not critical. Conditioning Mode • A special mode which rejuvenates and cycles batteries. Applies a special initial charge, discharge and recharge cycle which can restore battery performance (requires up to 16 hours to complete). • Conditioning cycle can be used to rescue degraded batteries and exercise infrequently-used batteries. • Recommended once every ten normal charges for NiMH batteries to ensure good performance.
