Read This Review: Simple, compact, affrodable, easy to use - used to protect batteries in "dumb"/non-automatic sensing chargers

We use this 1, 2, 4, 8 hour, or constant on countdown timer as a "set and forget" timer to limit battery charging times on "dumb" battery chargers. This prevents overcharging damage to battery packs, and wasted electricity on constant on power tool batteries/chargers.

120 vAC. Has a 1,000 watt load capacity. You cycle through the timer options by pressing the raised button on timer face, the LEDs light up next to the time selected.

We hope Woods Imports keeps making and selling this timer, it's a proven product - has been around a long time. Amazon Prime is great.

This product is extremely cheap, and yet it works perfectly. If you were out there looking for some battery tester with a proper price, I can guarantee you're in the right place. It works with all kinds of batteries, easy and simple to use.

Granted, this is the first universal smart battery charger I have owned and so I am very impressed with the convenience it provides over my old battery chargers. I've only used it a couple of times so far, but it is very easy to use. Just put the battery in the slot, press discharge (if there is a little bit of battery power left) and walk away. Come back later and have freshly charged batteries. It's also really handy since you can charge different battery types at the same time. I don't have any rechargeable 9V batteries so I can't say anything about that. But I charged three C batteries and the unit did not heat up at all. The item doesn't seem too bulky (considering you can recharge four D batteries in it) and when you aren't using it the cord easily folds up and sits inside the bay. The screen has four battery icons that appear whenever a battery is in a slot. They are the typical battery life LCD icons (with the three sections that flash on and off). It's not very fancy, but since you can easily tell if a battery is fully charged or not, it doesn't really need to be. The only button is the discharge button. The unit will start charging the batteries, even if they aren't fully discharged. To discharge them, you have to press the button. All in all, this unit doesn't have any bells and whistles, but it gets the job done right.

But what really, really impressed me is the customer service of the company. I had purchased the non-smart battery charger from this company (along with 4 C rechargeable batteries&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/EBL-AA-AAA-9V-C-D-Battery-Charger-4pcs-5000mAh-Ni-MH-Rechargeable-C-Batteries/dp/B00EL07KGM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">EBL AA/AAA/9V/C/D Battery Charger + 4pcs 5000mAh Ni-MH Rechargeable C Batteries</a>). I was not a fan of having to do math and set a timer yourself. And I received a faulty product. The batteries were not charging fully/at all. I ended up assuming I was using the product incorrectly, and so I just set it off to the side and ignored it. I didn't even contact the company. I just wrote a not very positive review here on Amazon. But, to my surprise, I later received an email from the company. They offered to send me this upgraded product for free. I didn't even have to pay shipping and handling or send the original charger back. I was a bit skeptical at first, since I had a negative experience with their first charger, but this one appears to work just fine. And so, after this whole process, I am very happy with my purchase.

So if you are leery of buying a product with a limited number of reviews, just know the company will easily, quickly and readily help you out.

I'm not sure one can write a whole lot on products such as these. These gadgets are simple, limited function, single purpose pocket items that either do what they are supposed to (or not) and hold up well (or not).

I like this charger very much. It is small and unobtrusive. It has three charging slots. The color scheme looks good in my car. But it is not perfect. The three slots produce different outputs and that means I might not be able to use all three. For instance, few of my gadgets can use the 5v/1amp so one slot is effectively worthless. Also, I've noticed that some of my devices are notoriously finicky when it comes to the 5v/2amp or 5v/2.1amp slots. So I might not be able to use more than one slot at any time. But at a price point less than $10 this is something I can live with. Wouldn't it be wonderful if Tmvel (or someone else) offered a three slot charger where all the slots provided the same output (and we could pick based on our device requirements)?

Bottom line, I really like this charger, but not for one penny more than it costs.

Summary: 4 solid stars.

A while ago i noticed that the inside of my FitBit was gathering dust and a little bit of rust, and that is the reason I invested in these tiny lifesavers. I put the plug in after i charge it and take it out when it needs to me charged. Simple as that. Buying these plugs are a good preventative measure to take. Without them, I'm sure the inside of my charging port would be very rusty by now. These are an easy solution to a not-so-easy-to-clean charging hole.

I recently purchased a USB rechargeable lamp, but it didn't come with its own USB wall charger for some reason.  So I set out to fix that, and was presented with an opportunity to test this one out for free in exchange for a candid.  Well, hooray for me, because this fits the bill perfectly.

What you see is what you get: a tiny wall charger with one USB port and dimpled sides to provide some grip.  It's small enough that it doesn't block both sides of a duplex electrical outlet, and it's about as pretty as you could make a USB charger look, so at least it's not an eyesore---it kind of blends with all my Apple products.

The plug fits snugly into the outlet without sticking or wobbling, and the USB port holds the USB-Standard-A plug firmly.  FWIW, it also arrives in modern, attractive, retail packaging, so it doesn't look like electronics-accesories-that-fell-off-the-back-of-a-truck, if you know what I mean.  This is pretty much as good as it gets for something like this.

I use the little wall adapter with my Panasonic battery chargers as a substitute for the long extension cord that is included.

A nice snug fit and the folding plug makes it far more convenient to carry and store. It doesn't fit flat to the wall when used, but reaches the outlet sufficiently. I wouldn't advise it for careless use, as the prongs are slightly visible in flush mounted receptacles.

No fault of the device, I'm using it for a purpose for which it was not intended. But it is quite functional as long as you are aware of the design.

I like to use Sanyo's eneloop batteries, so I amassed quite the collection over the years. Though I have mostly AA and AAA sizes, I use the occasional larger batteries for large flashlights and smoke detectors. I used to use plastic baggies for the juiced batteries, but they became quite the nuisance, and I had bags of batteries scattered throughout the house. Thus, I wanted quick access to juice whenever an emergency arose, so I looked and found the Powerpax Storacells. I was initially put off by their prices, but found them relatively inexpensive on Amazon (not to mention there weren't many places that sold `em anyway); I really wanted the moonshine versions (to find at night or when taking outdoors), but, since I was already complaining about the base prices for the other versions, the glow-in-the-dark ones were out of the question.

These Storacells work greatly. There's a clip mechanism that keeps the batteries in place from falling out, but they also allow the batteries to be easily taken out by pushing on the bottom (negative) side of the battery. The clips are a bit stiff at first, so it'll be harder to put the batteries in the first time, though it's really not hard at all. It's easier to slide each battery against the clip so they move in smoothly.
If you have mostly AA and AAA with the occasional C and 9V batteries, this is the one to get. I'm already full of the AA and AAA slots, so I got another one to keep them in. Powerpax also makes Storacells dedicated for AA and AAA only if you have those and not the other sizes.

All in all, it's very useful and handy to have around the house, and even has a molded hanger to place on a nail or hook.

This is exactly as described.  It's compact and easy to use.  The only thing I would change is how close the hard drive port is to the plastic.  It feels like you're forcing it when plugging it in.  I somehow wreck the usb ports on all my phones, computers and electronics, but haven't broken this one yet.  With how small this is, it might not even be possible to make it so that it doesn't plug in awkwardly.. but if you have the kiss of electronic death like I do, you'll want to be careful.  I was going to give it 4 stars, but I was just made aware that I'm a "spaz" and most people don't break all their stuff.  So, it's five stars. Other than the usb thing- it really is a great product.  Glad I got it.. and it's cheap enough that when I do break the port, I can get another.

At this price point, this is a very good battery charger. It feels a little light in the sturdiness department, but the charger's features, I feel, make up for it.

Outright, I like that it is a one piece unit, with folding ac prongs mounted on the corner of the unit. This makes the charger handy because it can be added to the corner of a 6-outlet power strip or the end of a 6-outlet wall tap.  It is also great that there is no separate corded ac power supply to tangle-up, worry about losing and/or put away when you need to charge a few batteries.

Thus far, the charger does have smart functions such as turning itself off when all batteries are charged (i.e. - the green backlit display on = charging // no display = charges are complete) This is a nice feature to have as I have not seen it in chargers under $15. Also, the unit does charge single or multiple batteries at a reasonable pace -- I charged 2 850mAh AAA Energizer batteries from empty to full capacity in 2 hours. (I will update this info as I work with others. )

I am docking one star for the fact that, despite the instructions saying otherwise, this unit will attempt to charge alkaline batteries if they are placed in the unit. Seems like common sense to me not to attempt charging an alkaline battery, so this is a minor flaw to me. The other reason I'm docking one star is the construction feels to be of a brittle plastic, which I am fine with since I'm generally careful handling of electronics.

I recommend this product and think it is a good value. I will update this review as needed.

This is a very nice charger, it charges both AAA & AA batteries. I bought these for work as we use a lot of batteries and we wanted to save battery costs and reduce waste. The chargers are simple to use and the readouts are very helpful. I like being able to see how much charge the batteries have. I will be the one charging the used batteries, so it will be nice to easily tell which ones are done and which are still charging. There will be times that I'll be running a lot of batteries through the chargers. I don't think I'll use the "fast charge" option since that cuts down on the battery life, but it's nice to know it's available if needed. As we use these more, I'll update this review if there are any significant developments. As of now, we're very happy with them. My boss recommended these chargers as he has been using them at home for awhile and really likes them.

This battery keeper is just as described.  The battery tester is magnetized and sticks to the main case--a pleasant surprize.  It does keep button batteries from falling out whether it is vertical or horizontal. I do need a magnifying glass to read some of the markings on button batteries.  I put a self-adhesive "grip-it" on the side to hold the magnifier.  If I were to make this product, that addition would be a real plus.  Still, it wasn't hard to add the magnifier.

I originally purchased this for use with a TrippLite USB extension/repeater cable. While the hub was recognized, any connected device errors out during install. Others seem to have used this combination just fine, but I had no luck.

Fortunately the hub works just fine in its intended role, and since it's compact I carry it with my netbook when I travel. Its small size and sleek, unobtrusive design also makes it a perfect match for my PS3, and I use it to charge multiple controllers at once.

A note on construction, however. Each port has an individual power switch which can deactivate said port. This seems needless to me - why not just unplug your device instead of switching its port off? At least the switches seem secure enough, and I just leave them "ON" all the time, as most sliders of this type tend to break off with use.

Despite this, it's a compact, inexpensive USB 2.0 hub, and travels well.

Pros:

1.  Does exactly what I want it to do.
2.  Fits a large array of rechargeable batteries.
3.  Works wonderfully on flat top li-ion 18650 batteries.

Cons:

1.  Nothing really.

Suggestions for improvement:

1.  Make the LED's change color when finished charging.  The flashing lights are a little cryptic until you get used to the idea that they never change color (the instruction manual could be a bit clearer).
2.  More cooling ports?  I usually have this charger in a cool, air conditioned location, but would feel more comfortable if it had better ventilation.
3.  It would be nice if the unit or the instructions had the volt/amp requirements for the 12v vehicle charger on the unit.  While the vehicle charger is optional, it would be nice to be able to use my own equipment.

There's really not much to say about an external battery like this. It has a very simple purpose: to provide power for various electronic devices when you can't access an outlet or other more common source of power. This battery does just that and excellently to boot! I've used it with my cell phone, my Galaxy Tab 3, my wife's iPad Air, heck, I've even used it to successfully charge my PS Vita and several different kinds of gaming controllers (Wii-U Pro-Controller, PS3, etc). This thing is simple and easy to use.

The initial charge takes a few hours, but once the initial few charges are done, this thing contains a tremendous amount of power. It is a little heavy, but really, that's a minor complaint. The build is tough and the battery life indicator lights on the front are easy to understand. This thing has a very minimalistic design, but that works just fine for its purpose. I also really like that there's an LED flashlight included at the top. It's very bright and makes this come in handy in more situations than just emergency charging. So if you're looking for an external battery to use with various  electronic devices across a wide range, I'd say this is definitely a top contender for that. For the price, it works and well. Hope you found the review helpful. Thanks for reading.

*Note: I received a sample product in exchange for an honest and unbiased review, which you have just read. Thanks again for reading. Toodles.*

The folks at Eva Electronics were kind enough to provide me with this Pink 2.4 Amp Dual Wall Charger in exchange for sharing my unbiased review...

This product is made in China. It is hot pink in color, as pictured, making it super easy to spot, and less likely for us to leave behind when traveling.

I tested this charger out with my HTC One M8 phone and our Google Nexus 7 2013 tablet. It's smaller than some chargers but we own another dual wall charger that is a bit smaller. This one is a good size though.

We have had this charger in use for about 6 weeks now without any problems. It charges as fast as our other chargers when paired with good cords. The foldable plug is convenient and easy to fold open and closed.

Another item I'd recommend that fits this dual wall charger inside, along with a cord, and is also nice for travel,&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Case-Star--2-PCS-Dark-Green-and-Purple-Earphone-Handsfree-Headset-HARD-EVA-Case-Clamshell-MESH-Style-with-Zipper-Enclosure-Inner-Pocket-and-Durable-Exterior-Plus-Silver-Climbing-Carabiner-With-Case-Star-Cell-Phone-Bag-EVA-Earphone-Case-Dark-Green-and-Purple/dp/B00JB1LGQQ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Case Star  2 PCS(Dark Green and Purple) Earphone Handsfree Headset HARD EVA Case - Clamshell/MESH Style with Zipper Enclosure, Inner Pocket, and Durable Exterior Plus Silver Climbing Carabiner With Case Star Cell Phone Bag (EVA Earphone Case-Dark Green and Purple)</a>

We own another that is nice because it lights up when plugged in properly. This makes it easy to make sure you're not plugged into a bad outlet and to see your plug in the dark (but it's also a bit larger and more expensive).

I'm rating this wall charger 4 stars because we like it but it's not our favorite for being the smallest or most feature-rich. It is, however, as advertised and a good charger. I'll be sure to update this review should it go out on us.

Posting some photos so you can get a closer look and better idea of it's size (the pic of it plugged into the power strip is just to show you how much space it takes). Smile. I would recommend this charger to others. Hope this helps!

Perfect for smaller lipo batteries.  Low cost for the added peace of mind.
