Go with the Hyperion, it's a much more professional charger and it's multi chemistry. Hyperion Eos720I Net 3 Ac/Dc Balance Charger 7S 16N Store Mode

I've been using this charger for a few months, works well. Has a few formats to recondition your batteries. I'm disappointed with their batteries, capacity levels fail to meet their stated levels.

You can find adapters that will take C/D sizes that snaps into a AA/AAA slot of the Wizard One and similar chargers (the one I found was for Tenergy of something but it fit well enough); that way you can use all the modes of the Wizard One...esp checking the capacity...not to mention ability to use up to 2000mA (2 amps) charging rate.... otherwise you are usually limited to blind charging...you do loose contact with the temperature sensor, however normally not an issue.

I haven't had a D-cell for awhile, but I have used Titanium brand battery charger with good results.

This company folded a long time ago. Try EBay, flea markets or drill charger type charger I gave the specs here a while ago.

No. A regular rechargeable battery charger will have an output just over 1.5V per cell. These are 3.2V. Unfortunately your charger will either read them as fully charged way too soon, or refuse to charge them at all. There very well could be super-smart-chargers that would somehow recognize these and charge appropriately, but a regular one for 1.2V NiMH or NiCad batteries will not work.

Just JST.But, look this.Tenergy TB6-B 50W Balancing Charger for NiMH/NiCD/Li-PO/Li-Fe/SLA Battery Packs

I have a hi-tech peak detector charger that can safely recharge any good the battery quality NiCd or NiMh in under 15 minutes. Fast charging does not over heat the battery, over charging at any rate does. Good quality charges cost big bucks, but if time is money the at a good investment.

I will never purchase this charger ever again, if you read the 1 stars in reviews theirs just like mine and had basically the same problems. I ended up buying a B6AC 80watt 6amp charger for about the same price and have used it constantly for 2 years now with out a problem. But the answer to your question they both will charge NiMh,NiCd,LiPo,LiOn batteries.

Experts insist that NiMh wants different charging than NiCd.I got B&D;'s BDFC240, which can recharge it faster, then stop to avoid overcharging.The BDFC240 also avoids overcharging regular B&D; NiCd batteries,which lack the third connection to enable faster charging.

Megabatteries.com offers 2200 mAh 7.2 V NiMH battery packs which fits my tanks. However, there is no connector. So, you need to cut the connector off the existing battery pack's wire and connect it to the NiMh's batteries bare wires. I assume you would choose soldering for the best connection. Amazon offers a 7.2 V smart charger for these battery packs, but the connector is not a match so I just use the included alligator clips and it charges just fine. Smart chargers are useful to prevent overcharging. I don't have this exact tank. Rather I have this tank... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002K4TSIE/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I am assumming the battery packs are identical and are both 400 mAh NiCad's. These tanks are very very close. Verify the 400mAh capacity of the tank listed for this review to make sure it matches mine exaclty ( 6 AA NiCad's side by side) If any one can tell if these battery packs have a standard Tamiya connector, I would like to know.

my batteries are DX1500 NiMH rechargeable and i no longer have the instructions to see if it does other types but if you find a charger cheap enough it wouldn't hurt to try it

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.

Jan. 24 2015 Hello Ronald G: I use RAYOVAC "NiMH" Rechargeable Platinum "D" batteries, and they get recharged just fine.The other variety, Ni-CD, I would think that if they are a rechargeable battery, then the unit will recharge them. And, I will add that, the charger has been just great, and lasted a long time with zero problems. Good luck.

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!!

Would you tell me the brand of the NiMH batteries you used? I have problems to find suitable ones.

The primary problem is that NiMH batteries do not like to be force-fed/overcharged, and that is exactly what NiCd "low-end" chargers do: they are basically constant-current "trickle" chargers (low current, takes many hours to charge, then keep feeding this same charging current even after the NiCd is fully charged). NiCd batteries just shrug off this excess charging current, but it will eventually "cook" your NiMHs. That said, NiMH will pack much more punch into given size...so if you don't leave it on constant charge (drain it, charge it overnight, then unplug it once "properly" charged) it should work quite well. Of course if you ditch the crappy little wallwart "charger" and hook it up to a proper NiMH charger, it'll work Great!

You would probably need to go with the NOCO Genius G7200 12V/24V 7200mA Fully Automatic Battery Charger and Maintainer (Grey) it has a boost mode which is what it sounds like you're looking for.

I believe the other two don't know what they are talking about. NiMH batteries hold a charge at about 1.5v when topped off. It should work fine. If this thing doesn't work with NiMH batteries, it would be the first thing I've EVER seen which does not work with NiMH.

You did not say what batteries or charger you are using so it's impossible to tell why you are having trouble. I use NiMH rechargeables. The silver Energizer's seem to last longer than Duracell's but both will power the unit for a day's use.
