Decent deal on a good battery charger.
It may be a little slow (both in arriving on your doorstep, and charging your batteries), but at least you know it wont damage your batteries by charging them too fast.
If only you could stack this with the BESTBG 5% off coupon code!!

I know Banggood is selling genuine ones, you can never be sure with Aliexpress.
Plus Banggood customer service these days is quite good. Every problem I've had has been resolved successfully.fair enough.. although the USD26 one that douglasb linked to has had 1085 orders with a feedback rating of 99.1% (551 feedbacks). those are pretty good odds i would say.
you can get it on aliexpress for USD26 or ~$30 anyday.
edit: oops see above.
For those like myself who didn't know what this thing does… (looks like the La Crosse of the new battery types, on paper at least this thing looks the goods!)

BUT the stupid thing doesn't tell you how much charge went into the battery. So way different demo my MAHA C900 or a lacrosse. Stupid firmware omission, it tells you the instantaneous mA, but doesn't add up the mAh
Hmmmm, doesn't sound so good then…
Maybe these chargers need to mature further first. Thanks for the tip.
I bought 2 from banggood and both dead less than a year. Not the batteries as my brother has different brand
Very slightly cheaper at Fasttech, $29.67 USD ($33.90 AUD if you have a 28degrees card), free shipping (US plug, but it takes 240 V if you have an adapter). Use coupon code

.
Input: AC 100-240V 50/60Hz 0.35A(MAX), DC 12V 1A
Output voltage: 4.2V ±1% / 3.7V ±1% / 1.48V ±1%
Output current: 375mA x 4 / 750mA x 2You weren't kidding about slow.
There's no detailed review yet, but here's one for the Nitecore Intellicharger i4 2014, which has identical output current. It apparently takes a little over six hours to fully charge a 3100 mAh Li-ion battery when you put two in (two channels). It'll probably take double the time for four batteries. It does charge NiMH, though, which is nice.
I'm currently using a Soshine S1 Max V3, which costs $25 shipped. It charges with a full 1A per battery (four channels), and takes a little over three hours to fully charge one to four 3100 mAh batteries. Doesn't do NiMH though (I have an older Duracell charger for that, and it's faster anyway).
Does this come with AU plug?
1 x plug for your country(when ordering this charger please choose suitable plug,just bellow the price.)
Options I can see are EU, UK and US. So, apparently not.
Yes, mine did.
Some time ago somebody linked to a more budget (but still proper) battery charger for $13~.
Anyone know where that one is? I bought one but I lost it lolCheap and nasty are the two words that spring to mind when I think of NiteCore's chargers.
My Intellicharger i4 makes an unnerving high-pitched whine when charging, an intermittent arcing sound when using the supplied converter and rattles like a toddler's shaker. The spring-loaded battery retainers look and feel like they're going to snap out of the box and the actual battery slots are very poorly laid out with the batteries not lining up dead-centre or making even contact with the terminals. AAA batteries are especially difficult to get properly seated.
They're okay for very occasional use but they can't hold a candle to a good LaCrosse or Maha.
did you buy the genuine one? my D4 don't have any above problem, quality is same as my la cross. my D4 come with a US power cord, not DC adapter.
Do LaCrosse or Maha make Li-ion chargers? Can't say I've ever seen one, and a quick search turns up nothing.
I suppose if you only needed a NiMH charger…
Mine is good quality, it's slow, but hey who needs fast when you have over 60 charged batteries lying around?
I agree, a bit slow (overnight job for several batteries). I got one of these 07/2014 from Banggood USD $28.99 (US plug only at the time, but a standard 2 prong figure 8 cable will work). The special price has gone up :(
I only use it occasionally and have no problems with AA/AAA….
Delivery from Banggood was really good. They sent it in a day or so.
These are cheaper on aliexpress.com. My first three search results for "nitecore d4" for example: US$26.00, US$26.30 and US$26.95. At least one of those claims to be genuine! :-)
