BONAI 8 Bay Battery Charger for AA AAA Ni-MH Ni-CD Rechargeable Batteries with USB Port 8 LEDs

This charger is very small, especially considering that it can charge up to 8 AA or AAA batteries at once. And, you can charge any number of batteries at once, from 1 to 8 (other battery changers only let you charge batteries in "pairs" or even numbers, even though a lot of devices require 3 batteries, or only 1 battery.) The LED indicator lights give you a lot of feedback, first assuring you that all eight charging ports are working, then changing color to indicate each battery's charging status (red=charging, green=fully charged.) This charger is powered by a USB cable, which gives you a lot of different charging options: Many surge-protectors and multiple outlet power strips now come with a couple of USB ports on them that you can plug this into (or, you could plug it into a computer's USB port to charge, of course), but if you want to plug it directly into an AC outlet, you will need to get an inexpensive AC to USB adapter (many of these are inexpensive, and it is likely you already have some at home, but if not you can shop for them here: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=ac+to+usb+adapter&crid=5EFSBGK0GJK7&sprefix=ac+to+usb%2Caps%2C210&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_9 )This charger charges batteries pretty quickly (within reason), and also has all of the protective feature in it that you would want, such as protection against over-charging the batteries, indicator LED lights that blink to show you if a battery is defective or is inserted the wrong way in the charger, etc. And speaking of that, the ends of each batter bay are marked with plus and minus signs that are molded into the plastic body of the charger, but they are very small and require a lot of strong light to see. So, I took a black sharpie marker and marked a plus sign at the top of the left side of the row of battery bays, and I marked a minus sign down at the bottom, so that I won't accidentally insert batteries the wrong way when being in a hurry, or being sleepy, etc.I like this charger so much that I bought two of them, since we have a lot of remote controls and other devices that use AAA and AA batteries.

This charger is fantastic. Before I ordered it, I had quite a few rechargeable batteries that I used for everything. Our tv remotes, our bed remote, my headlamp, some of the kids stuff, etc. I only had 2 4 slot chargers that plugged into the outlet(the kind that come with some packs of rechargeable batteries) and those things literally took 24 hours to charge the batteries. Well I ended up buying 20 more AAs to use in my two game/trail cameras and those chargers just werent going to cut It, so I ordered this. I remember the first time i used it, i put 8 batteries in it, made sure they were charging and walked away. I came back maybe 45 mins later at the longest and every single battery was showing charged. I didnt believe it so I pulled them off and checked them with a multimeter and they were showing charged. So i let them sit on the counter, not in the charger, for an hour and came back to check the voltage again. It was still the same, so I was pretty happy. Another awesome thing about this charger is that you dont have to charge your batteries in pairs with it. For example, my headlamp(which gets alot of us) takes 3 AAA batteries. When It was time to charge them on the old ones, I would have to grab a 4th battery to throw it on with the other 3, otherwise I could only charge the 2

The media could not be loaded. I bought this product back in November 7, 2021, and had always kept it connected to a surge protector. During early 2023 and in the context of regular power outtages, this device suddenly stopped working propperly. It started by flashing all lights RED o GEEN, then, after a while, it would "fix itself" and It would start charging the batteries. Nonetheless, starting year 2024, it stopped working completely and it doesn't even show lights now ---as per you can see in the video.

I’ve had this charger for awhile now and have had no problems! I was sick of buying new batteries for all of the puck and string lights that I have. So I decided to buy rechargeable batteries, but needed a charger.This little thing is cost effective and charges batteries in a decent amount of time. I also like the functionality of being able to charge both AA and AAA.

The BONAI charger works well, it charges both AAA and AA batteries in any combination. The USB portable charger makes it easy to take with you and charge while on the go, just plug into any standard USB connection. It's small size also makes it easy to place in small and cramped spaces. Warranty is also offered with this charger. Over all, I would recommend this charger as it performs as mentioned and comes with very good customer service.

I would have given this Five Stars except for one thing; it is meant to charge batteries; however, if a battery gets ran down below a certain point, all this thing will do is flash a red light.This forces me to use my trusty old non-smart Harbor Freight charger that I have had for decades and bring the batteries up past the required voltage for this stupid smart charger to then go ahead and finish charging them; this is a huge annoyance.I have other NiMH batteries that this unit will completely refuse to charge, regardless of voltage; these same batteries have been charged over and over with the non-smart HF charger and take and hold charge and last just as long as any of my other batteries.This charger is just much too smart for it's own good.Another gripe I have is the housing is translucent, like a big light diffuser; when the red or green lights are on, the whole thing is lit up.

Easy to use, bright lights to indicate full battery charge, no need to wear glasses to figure out how to use. Cat pushed it off a counter a few times, still works with no isssues, so can say quality built. Good value for the price, recommended.
