Charger for your 18650s / Eneloops / whatever the Ikea equivalent is. These look to sell for around $35 everywhere else.
Pretty well reviewed charger, can also function as a battery pack, plus check the battery levels of stuff you plug into it. Charges your NIMH batteries too and lots of other ones (except Life-po batteries) via USB.

Most importantly though apparently is the 'time remaining' till full charge readout. Which according to the manufacturer, allows you to maximise the use of your time by knowing how long left until the batteries are charged. So if it says 2 hours left, instead of sitting around staring at the charger, you can go have a nap or something.

  • XTAR 0V Activation Function can revive damaged (low voltage) battery to save your money.
  • Compatible with any 5V USB power including USB wall adaptors, cell phone chargers, solar panel, PC USB, etc.No need to buy other adaptors.
  • Use 5V 2.1A input power can maximize the advantages of the VC2 Plus.Automatically stop charging when complete and restart charging function makes it safe to keep the batteries inside the charger overnight.

  • Better off getting the VC4.
    Takes a few hours just to charge 4 batteries. Charging 2 batteries at a time is a PITA.

  • I'll stick with my Liitokala 402. 4 battery slots, cheaper and actually states what batteries it supports (Li-Fe, Li-Ion (3.2V + 3.7V) + NiMH).

    • The VC4 shows the battery type, voltage and charging current. I believe the VC2 does too, but it's not really cheap. Get the VC4 for a couple of more bucks

  • I have this one and it's a slightly different beast to the VC4 in that it can charge @ 2000mAh on both channels (useful of you are charging larger batteries like 26650)

    The VC4 can only do 500mAh if using all channels (will take forever)

    • Does 2A as 2x1A. Can get a 1A tp4056 module for ~$1. Connect as many as you want in parallel and as long as your 5V source can supply enough amps, can charge them all at 1A.
