Can I utilize my Energizer® Recharge® Value Charger with these batteries?

That energizer charger will charge your batteries at too high a rate and reduce both the life and number of cycles of your batteries. The Panasonic charger that is often sold with these batteries will charge your eneloops at the correct rate recommended by both Sanyo and Panasonic engineers to optimize the life of your batteries, (300mA for AA and 150mA for AAA).

You should match the charger to the battery type. The Tenergy batteries are Ni-Cd (Nickel-Cadmium), so your charger has to be able to handle Ni-Cd batteries. I suspect your Energizer charger may be for conventional rechargeables and probably won't work. Another kind of battery is Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride). Both Ni-MH and Ni-Cd will outperform conventional rechargeables, so are worth the upfront cost unless you are using low-drain applications (e.g., TV remotes).

Yes. Just put em' in and leave them. These chargers go into "Energy Save Mode" when the battery is charged, preventing damage to the cells. They come back on only to "trickle charge" when necessary.

Usually Energizer chargers can only charge Energizer batteries I would make sure it says compatible with high capacity NiMH batteries even if it can charge them it could take a longer time & it may heat the batteries to an unsafe temperature

Yes, sort of. These batteries have specific eflite-only plugs, so it's necessary to either use their charger or to get an adapter that goes from the battery plug to the charger. If you have that, then charge away!

I believe so. Most battery chargers are universal...can charge Duracell on a rayovac charger, charge energizer on a Duracell charger, rayovac on a energizer charger. As long as you don't mix batteries it will be fine.

These batteries can be charged with any charger that charges NiMh batteries. It should say that on the charger's package. When charged, you just use these batteries like any other batteries, based on the size. For example, the "D" cell batteries can be used on any appliance that takes "D" cell batteries.

The Energizer Value Charge CHVCMWB-4 is a very poor charger. It charges in pairs (BAD) and is timer-based (BAD). If you are in a pinch, you can use it to recharge eneloop cells. But in the long run you'll going to send your batteries to a premature death.

I thought I could, but quickly found you cannot. Ended up purchasing a new charger to go with my two new lithium batteries. You are better off to look for a kit or even a tool that comes with both. One good thing about the new charger is that it is "smarter" - you can leave the battery in the charger almost indefinitely without damaging it.

Based on my experience charging the Sony "CycleEnergy" included with the charger, La Crosse "Tech", Eneloop, and a gaggle of very old Energizer Ni-MH batteries, the short answer is yes. Note however, in the operating instructions "Warnings" section, Sony states, "Use only Sony AA or AAA size Ni-MN rechargeable batteries." In the "Instructions" section Sony states, "Do not mix batteries of different capacity, type, or brand. Do not use batteries which are charged at different times. Always keep rechargeable batteries together as a set. Replace as a whole set. Do not mix old batteries with new ones." Perhaps I am cynical but I generally disregard "use only" brand statements, which I believe are strictly a marketing tactic. Coincidentally, regardless of what Sony states, I have, as far as I am able to tell, successfully simultaneously charged different battery brands and capacities in the Sony charger. That is not to say that there is not a legitimate issue that dictates not doing so; rather, I cannot comprehend what the issue could be. Bottom line: yes, the Sony charger will charge any brand of Ni-MH battery. Regarding mixing brands or capacities, I have not noticed any issues doing so. Ed

I have used several chargers and they have all worked with these batteries. You should not have to purchase a specific one.

As per the product spec's "Energizer Recharge Smart Charger charges 2 or 4 AA or AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries"as long as the batteries are NiMH rechargeable types it SHOULD work. Personally, I just use the ones that came in the kit

Black & Decker says that these batteries can be left on their chargers indefinitely without overcharging. I don't know what would happen if you used a different charger.

I am using energizer recharger but cannot fully recharge the batteries. I guess Tenergy charger would suit its original brand.

Yes, they can be recharged with other rechargeables. I do it with my energizer multicharger.

I don't know, but I use the Maha charger to recharge these batteries. You could contact Radio Shack and ask them regarding their charger.

It depends on your charger not the batteries. As long as you realize which ones are charged, it doesn't seem to matter. My son uses them in his r/c vehicles which use various amounts of batteries.
