Ps, I read a post after I wrote that any charger will work on Duracell's. My comment to that persons claim Duracell sucks, not true. I use AA/AAA BATTS AND I LOVE THEM. I use them on several (high demand) items they last super long. From video controllers to my house phone (1 full charge will last about a week, only put I on the cradle once a week)!

The Duracell mini charger can be recharged by two methods. First, the method I use and find most convenient is that I plug it into my desktop computer at night and it will recharge in a few hours. The second method is to use a 120V AC charger that has a USB connector and plug the Duracell charger into the USB connector of the charger. The cord that is included with the Duracell charger is used both for supplying power to a device, like a cellphone, and it is used to connect the Duracell charger to a power source for recharging.

As per the packageing information, the 2-1,700 mAh batteries (AA) included should take 6 hours to fully charge. The charger works according to the capacity of the batteries being charged. For instance, I also purchased some 2000 mAh and also some 2,450 mAh batteries (all Duracell) to use in various products. Certain BlueTooth and other wireless items require a higher storage of energy capacity to work efficiently. If you go online and look for Duracell batteries you will come across a chart showing the color-coded tips of each capacity. Newer uncharged batteries, such as those that come with the charger, may take a bit longer to charge. But the charger itself tells you when things are done, by displaying a GREEN LED. If the LED is RED, the batteries are still charging. If the RED LED Flashes, you have an "abnormal" battery and it will have to be replaced. Anything bad out of the package is fully replaceable by Duracell, if not by your local retailer. I've trusted Duracell and their products for decades. Very reliable. The only thing even CLOSE is the Eveready LITHIUM/ION non-rechargables... and they cost as much as the Duracell Re-Chargeables!

No. The charger directions specifically say it's for use with rechargeable batteries only. You should not try to charge "regular" batteries in the charger meant for rechargeable batteries.

A adapter is included that claims to work with Duracell units. I don't have a Duracell unit, so I cannot verify if it works properly.

No, that charger only charges NiCD batteries. These are NiMH batteries so you will need to get the B&D model #BDFC240 which will do both types NiCD and NiMH.

Absolutely. This charger is the best they make in my opinion. It will also charge in a mode that inspects each individual cell in the battery and has recovered several batteries I thought worn out.

Carefully check that your Duracell charger is not for NiCd batteries. It must say that it will charge Ni-MH batteries instead. They are not interchangeable.

Yes you can. The charger is designed to recognize a full charge and then will trickle charge so that the batteries stay charged and ready but not overcharged. I am doing the same on mine

Yes, you can take the battery out and charge it with chargers that are capable of handling battery code EN-EL19. Amazon sells such chargers. Hope this helps. Always good to have a back up battery.

Duracell seems to have a new standard for their chargers. In retail stores, you can find the "Duracell 4000" and "Duracell 1000" chargers.

I use the Duracell 11F151 charger which will accommodate 4-AA as well as 4-AAA batteries at the same time. This charger works well for me!

As long as you can see the + and - on the top or bottom of the battery you can charge just about anything. It was really handy. I bought it for a Samsung galaxy s2 phone when my husband broke the charging port.

Hello. Yes, I believe You can use your Duracell Charger to charge your Amazon Basic batteries. I currently use this (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XSA5WW/ref=wms_ohs_product) Duracell charger and it works flawlessly with Amazon Basic batteries. I have tried Energizer batteries with my charger which didn't work, the charger couldn't detect the battery.
