I'm not sure - these batteries are 2550 mAh and the charger is bundled with 2100 mAh batteries. Good question to ask Panasonic. If have a bunch of the 2500 mAh and use the La Crosse Technology BC-700 Alpha Power Battery Charger. You can slow charge and it shows the charge level. I highly recommend this charger.

Yes, it will be fine. I use a 3rd party charger all the time when I have lots of battereries needing a charge for a project. I always top it off after using for my camera flash.

Every charger for NiCd/NiMH batteries will charge each and every NiCd/NiMH battery as long as it will physically fit there or/and voltage is right (1.2V). Rapid chargers however reduce batteries lifetime. AA batteries should be charged with 200mA. It takes 12 or even more hours but batteries will last for years.

I have had issues using non-Eneloop NiMH cells in this charger. For example, I've tried Ray-o-Vac and La Crosse NiMH AA's and this charger blinks the green LED indicating an error (the same NiMH AA cells work perfectly in the La Crosse charger). I think this charger may require cells with higher internal impedance. Panasonic doesn't claim compatibility with any other brand NiMH batteries. (I know this question was asked a long time ago, but this info may benefit others asking the same question.)

The answers you've received are correct, the camera comes with a cord to charge the battery in camera. I also bought the Wasabi battery 2-pack and charger and I've used those batteries in the camera. They work fine, so you don't need to buy Panasonic brand batteries as one person suggested.

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

Yes, it charge on A/C current and then runs off that charge. I personally put rechargeable batteries in it just for safety backup. I use "2 of Panasonic K-KJS1MCA2BA eneloop AA NEW 2100 Cycle, Ni-MH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries, 2 Pack with 2 "D" Spacers " which are considerably cheaper since are actually AA housed on a D cell spacer.

Yes you can use the original charger. I have found if you charge them then let them go completely dead a couple of times they seem to last longer from then on out. Good luck to you William hope you have as good of luck as I have had with mine.

I bought this one Rayovac PS3PL Smart Charger AA/AAA/C/D/9V Platinum Universal Battery Charger http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LY67YA/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0or if you want to use spacers instead of buying C batteries you could buy the eneloop power pack. probably would have to charge the AA batteries a lot more if you use a high drain device. eneloop Super Power Pack, 1800 cycle, 12 AA, 4 AAA, 2 "C" and 2 "D" Spacers, 4 Position Charger, and Storage Case

If your phone uses triple a battery's you sure can charge them before you use the they come charged but not fully seem to be a good low cost option for rechargables I use them in my clocks cameras and grand kid toys.

According to Sanyo eneloop web site: "Eneloop batteries are not limited to Eneloop chargers or any special proprietory charging technology and can be charged using other quality non-Eneloop Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery chargers." As long as you have a good quality "smart" charger (meaning that it charges each cell individually and stops whenever each cell is full), you can charge the eneloop cells with it. Personally, I would avoid those 15-minute Super-Fast chargers.

I didn't use a Sanyo Eneloop charger, I used a EBL 800 charger. They were fine when they were done charging. But if you don't have a "smart charger" you should wait until you drain all of the power from the batteries so you won't risk over charging the batteries. I'm guessing that's the reason your batteries were hot.

Yes you can. I am using Eneloop (low self-discharge) AA batteries inside size D plastic adapters (two AA batteries per one D adapter) and it works fine. The only inconvenience is that to charge the batteries I have to remove them out of the adapters. There do exist size D rechargeable batteries as well but I need batteries that can hold their charge even when they are not being used.

To recharge the batteries, you will need to purchase a charger. Here is the link to a charger and 4 AA batteries. I recommend that you get lots of AAs; it's amazing how often you use them. Sanyo Eneloop NiMH Battery Charger with 4AA NiMH Rechargable Batteries (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

I don't think you can charge these batteries properly with the regular chargers. You can use the Tenergy TN270 that was recommended. I use the SYSMAX Intellicharge i4 JETBeam. It cost about $25 and will charge 4 batteries. It's universal and can also charge: AA, AAA, C type batteries too. I'm able to charge more batteries and other types without having to have other charges.I recently bought their button top type for my Nitecore MT40 Flashlight. I'm happy with Tenergy so-far.

I'm using this with rechargeable batteries since around 5 months without any issues. The ones I'm using are from Eneloop (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009LU9150/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1), wonderful capacity; charger I'm using is also from Eneloop only (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058GZWXQ/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1)

Yes, I use rechargeable energizer batteries both AA and C size and this charger works well with them.

It's OK to leave them in. I have the Nitecore quad charger and I find that the blue power on light is too bright when I'm at my desk so I unplug the charger and leave the batteries in. I charge both Nitecore Lithium and Eneloop AA & AAA. Goodbye Alkaline. (I use Panasonic D & C adapters.)

I use the excellent Eneloop AA NiMH rechargeable battery in all our AA-using cameras (Canon PowerShots and Lumix) and have no complaints. The Sanyo chargers sold with Eneloop cells are good; the Duracell CEF23 charger and the LaCrosse BC-700 charger/tester are both excellent. "Direct charge" (charging a camera's battery while it's still in the camera) ties up the camera during the charge process, and it is a system to be avoided if at all possible. All of our cameras have aux power in jacks or aux power in adapters. These are used for tethered shooting or with external battery packs. Few users need this feature, but it can be useful for things like time-lapse photography and lengthy continuous video.
