Does this charger work with those short little CR2 lithium ion (3v 900 mAh) batteries?

For all I know if the battery you are trying to charge is a reachargable it will change through this divice if it will fit in the charger. I think that your batteries will fit and charge but it might not charge as well as a specialty charger

It is made for 9.6 NiMh volt batteries and charges them very well. I'm not sure if it will work with the same desired results for Lithium batteries. You may need a charger just for Lithiums.

Yes it will work with all types of 18650's, 18350's, 16350's, 14500's etc. It will pretty much charge any rechargeable battery of this type of battery. Great charger for the money.

After doing a lot of research on NiMH and Li-Ion batteries and their respective charging algorithms (see book called "Batteries in a Portable World" or website batteryuniversity.com), I would say NO... do not use this charger for Li-Ion batteries. Only Ni-Cd and NiMH!!

No, chargers for the Ni-Cad batteries will not work for Lithium batteries unless they are the 'duel chemistry' chargers, which will work for both battery types.

The standard charger is designed for nickel cadium batteries, No problem , Lithium ion might have issues

sure!! I use this charger all the time for 70 mah to 200 mah 1 cell batteries. you should be okay with 180 mah 1 cell batteries with this charger. Cliff

Thanks for posting this question. I just purchased my 1st set of AAA batteries and planned to use them with this charger. I thought they wouldn't fit, started searching online for the solution, found this. I've yet to try it out, but will this evening. Thanks!

Yes it will, I have 2 Military Tactical Flashlights that use those batteries and I charge them with this charger

I used the charger on a Virgin Mobile LG Lithium Ion Battery 3.7V and it worked great. Took about 6 hours with a battery that was 90% discharged to get it back to it's full charge. (additional info on battery is 750mAh LGIP-411A) No problems once I got the alignment set up on the connection probes.

I would say yes. This charger allows you to leave the batteries on the charger so they have a full charge when you put them in.

Hi, It can not charge the CR123A battery since it's a 3.0V battery. The universal charger only works with 3.6/3.7 & 7.2/7.4V li-ion battery and Ni-MH battery. Kind regards, Terry 877-268-1235 x304

If you place the batteries face up with the 3 contacts on your left and the slide them into the recessed slot, the charger will work just fine. I have used it for charging 3 different brands of batteries and had no trouble at all.

I use the charger for standard 18 volt NiCad, 18 volt XRP NiCad, and 18 Volt Lithium Ion and it works with all these. I hope this proves useful to you in making your decision.

The CR123A batteries I bought on amazon are not Lithium-Ion batteries. They sent me CR123A Lithium batteries wich are NOT rechargable and are 3 Volts. These power my night vision iluminator. At the time I bought these batteries I could not find rechargable 123A batteries. As for the charger charging 123A batteries, mine are CR123A Lithium and are NOT rechargable but the contacts do fit this charger and there is a voltage setting on the side of the charger for 3 Volt or 4.2 Volt. If you lookup this charger it does not list any CR123A batteries compatible with it. So I* would say try at your own risk. But does seem viable because the voltage is close just watch to see if the batteries or charger heat up too much. I hope this helps.

It works fine with NiMH batteries. Just charged my NiMH today. Not sure where is was written, I use this charger with a NiMH battery, it works fine.

The charger is universal for that model of battery. A handy device when your mini usb port is damaged. Make sure you have two batteries so you can recharge one while using the other.
