can this charger charge non-nimh rechargable batteries?

The charger is designed for charging NiMH and NiCd batteries only. For anything else, do it at your own risk.

I can't vouch for "any", but they do charge in another charger I have - a Duracell one - and I would expect any nimh charger would charge them. However, I will say that I really prefer the Panasonic charger I got with these batteries. The Panasonic one will charge individual cells, where any other battery charger I've had will only charge in pairs.

As long as it is the same voltage (i.e. 12 or 18 volts). It is possible that you may need to make sure that the charger is for NiCad, and not Li-ion.

yes this charger should work with other batteries. the charger has an auto shut off when battery is charged.

No. The charger directions specifically say it's for use with rechargeable batteries only. You should not try to charge "regular" batteries in the charger meant for rechargeable batteries.

RZC, the responsibility is yours to evaluate the specifications and capabilities of the "duracell charger". Can it charge AA NiMH batteries?

If one battery is depleted more than the other, it will only charge until the least depleted battery is fully charged. Also. rechargable batteries do not last forever. NiMH are better than some others though. I believe this charger only charges NiMH rechargables.

On the device it says, "charge only 2/4 AA/AAA NI-MH rechargeable batteries..." So, no.

No. This will only work with NiMH and NiCd batteries. It does not provide the balanced charging adapter that is used to charge lipos. You will need to look for a specific LiPo battery charger.

NO!!!! the charger must be designed for lithum. batteries. They make a dual charger but must be designed for lithum

I would assume yes, if it's capable of handling any NiMH batteries. Personally I use a LaCrosse or PowerEx charger which tailors the charge to each individual cell for longer life and better indications of when the batteries are going bad.

You can use this Sony charger to charge any brand of NiMH/NiCd AA and AAA cells. The capacity is not an issue, as the charger knows when to stop charging when a cell is full.

No, AA NI-MH batteries put out about 1.2 volts. So they need to be charged at about 1.4 ish volts, this charger would overcharge the batteries

I do not know the answer. I know that the Anker batteries and charger I bought are versatile enough to charge any removable battery I have seen.

i use a Super Universal NI-MH LCD battery charger. Model: V-9688. now that being said, i didn't have very good luck with those batteries. eight of forty failed after just 2 charges.

Carefully check that your Duracell charger is not for NiCd batteries. It must say that it will charge Ni-MH batteries instead. They are not interchangeable.
