Will it also charge the smaller AAA betteries?

Unhappily not directly - probably the biggest downside of this charger. However you can use the USB port to charge AAA off the solar-charged AA via a regular (non-solar) USB battery charger. I'm sure it has to be extremely inefficient and it adds extra bulk and weight if you are backpacking, but it does work. It would be a lot better if you could simply flip down the terminal to adjust to the smaller AAA (as with the regular USB chargers) or there was an adapter that let you put the AAA into the AA slots (as with GoalZero)

Yes but you have to use adaptors, they are plastic surrounds you put the aaa batteries in. I don't remember if they came with the unit or another one I got.

Not by itself, but with an adaptor it does work. I use the Bluecell AAA to AA adaptors, they cost about $5 for a set of 8 and are available on Amazon. They work great.Bluecell 8 PCS Clear Color AAA to AA Battery Holder Converter Adaptor + Bluecell Cable Tie

Not directly, it only holds AA batteries. However if you a AAA charger with a USB plug I'd imagine it would charge them. It may lose some efficiency though if it has to convert wattage/voltage. Hope this helps!

Yes it will charge AAAs via adapters (which are available). The PowerFilm AA charger (which does not have a USB port, but rather charges 4 AA batteries) includes adapters to charge AAAs.

No, it has to be AA batteries. Also you need to have batteries in to use the USB charger.

Yes. It will charge both NiMH and NiCD batteries, either one at a time or up to eight at a time. You can even mix NiMH and NiCD. Just don't mix them in the same slot.

It should, but maybe very slowly. Duracell makes an outstanding AA/AAA charger (the model CEF23) for less money.

Yes it will, it does make it a extremely little more pull to charge it but it's worth it especially if you polish the inside rails

They will work with regular AAA batteries. I have also used rechargable AAAs, but found out that I had to scrape a bit of the paper off of the one making contact with the prong on the radio to make them work. You will still have to take this type battery out and put in a charger to charge.

Yes it will BUT when charging AAA it is required to charge 2 at a time in specific bays. The reason being, this unit charges at 700 mAh which is more charging power than most AAA batteries can handle, The total output of the device is 700 mAh so with two batteries being charged at the same time the power is being split up between the two batteries ie 350 mHa each. the owners manual sheet will tell you which position to place them in ( easy ). Option two = on the battery it should state the power output in mAh ( mili amp hour ) if the battery has a mAh rating of 700 or higher you will be fine charging one AAA at a time if desired. This mainly applies to NiCad rechargeable, NmH Nickle Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries can take a higher charging rate. If confused by above, just charge 3 or 4 batteries at a time, any size or mixture of sizes or types at the same time will guarantee your batteries will handle the charging output. Hope this helps.

e charger has the capability to charge both AA & AAA batts. Mine has a shorter slot on the bottom of the battery station, and above it is bonger slot /battery bay for the AA. Some chargers even have a 9V station. I hope this is clear.

I don't think so. This charger is a 3.5 volt charger and fits much larger batteries (for high powered flashlights). AA's are, I believe 1.5 volts. That looks likea mismatch to me.

Yes, of course it will.I use the charger for any and all batteries that fit up to the 4 volt size. Also I charge all new batteries when I get them.George

I threw this away years ago. It does work if given enough time to charge the battery. Calling AAA is faster, but this is better than nothing. Since this is s "trickle" charger my guess is no, but I'm not sure.

If the AAA battery works, you really don't need this one. However, this NextGen unit is rechargeable, and then it's a question of economy -- and whether you'd also have to buy a recharging device.

I see nothing to indicate it would. The unit appears designed to charge standard AA, AAA, C, D (all of which are 1.2v-1.5v) and 9v batteries. Nothing about a 3.6v battery. And so I doubt it. I suppose you could try it, but in my experience using too low a charging voltage will usually not fully charge a battery, and also potentially will shorten it's life.

The charger can charge either AA or AAA sizes and either in a pair or all 4.I ordered mine with 4 AA, this was my need.. But if I recall you may be able to order either, confirm this... I have since ordered additional batteries just for extra.. The charger itself is good, and charges in typical time - its not a quick or fast charger.. But good for overnight. It comes with other plugs for different countries although I dont forsee a need in my future, but hey... I gave more info than requested in hopes it answers any other or others questions...

If you look closely in the slots the aa batteries fit into you will see some short tabs that aaa batteries will engage. They will not be obvious in a picture unless it is a closeup. I thought the same thing and thought it was kind of cheap but it seems to be a clever way to charge both aaa and aa batteries in a compact design. I have been using mine primarily for charging aaa batteries for a headlight I use everyday at work and have had no problems.

Yes, both AA & AAA. As is typical with all chargers I have purchased in the last several years, the AAA contact point comes short of the AA and is slightly lower/recessed, so a AAA battery sits at a slight angle when charging.

Not true. You can charge any number (between 1 and 4) of AA cells at a time. You can even mix and match AA with AAA cells.

I bought and use it exclusively for AA rechargeable batteries. But the product literature very clearly states that it will work on AA and AAA and adjust the charging current appropriately - so I am not sure what you are questioning.
