Can I plug in an AC charger and put in Eneloop AA batteries and charge them with this device?

the batteries are not a problem. Some AC chargers for recharging batteries will work and some will not. Let me know the wall charger you are using and I will let you know. Most wall chargers will work. They need to be switching type that most are and less than 10 watts. Ken

I assume because it has an AC plug that this will work. Keep in mind it requires a lot of effort to get a charge so this device really is for emergency situations where you might need power rather than as a means to charge a device for the long term.

Based on the technical information online on this charger it should work fine. Usually we recommend the pedal generator for charging external batteries as the pedal generator is easy to pedal for long periods of time. the hand crank should work fine their are limits to how much hand cranking you can do so just keep that in mind if that is your intended application.

Sorry, I didn't use it to only charge the batteries. I just use for devices with the AA or AAA battery.

Yes, I tried charging Energizer 2450mAh AA rebatteries with no problem. Just be sure to charge it in pairs of the same bat capacity.

I haven't seen the information that you are talking about, but if you Google AA 18650 eneloop, what comes up is a Sanyo battery charger, that will charge AAA and AA batteries.Simon recommends that you use rechargeable batteries, and that particular brand is supposed to discharge slowly (an issue with rechargeable batteries is that they discharge even when not being used). So I would assume that they are recommending a particular brand of rechargeable battery, rather than saying you can use an AA battery.

cant say for sure im not sure what kind of batteries those are but i charge my enaloops with it and it hold 8 aa and 8 aaa i charge the new black version of enaloops just fine and the white aaa enaloops as well

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.

If the device has a cable with a USB tip, the AbsolutePower will provide power and charge from an A/C outlet. It's not a backup battery source, though.

While I can't say for certain it will work with Eneloop batteries, it does have an intelligent charger system that prevents over-charging just like the Smart Charger that comes with Panasonic Eneloop batteries. It does say on Nitecore's website that it is compatible with Ni-MH/Ni-Cd AA, AAA, AAAA and C batteries. charger.nitecore.com/product/intellicharger-i2 Hope this is helpful.

I don't think so. All I know is that it takes maybe 3 - 6 hours to do a full charge. I've been using Eneloop batteries for over a year now and haven't noticed any difference in their charge life from then to now.

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.

Not directly, it only holds AA batteries. However if you a AAA charger with a USB plug I'd imagine it would charge them. It may lose some efficiency though if it has to convert wattage/voltage. Hope this helps!

Sorry, I misunderstood your first post. Are you using this battery pack to charge rechargeable batteries, such as AAs or AAAs?

No. This device is SUPPOSED to charge a device that is plugged into it and runs on betteries (2 AA). It does not charge batteries.

You should be able to charge these batteries, but get ready to learn you wasted money for crappy batteries... Most of the "high power" batteries I came across are fake and not holding more than half charge they promise. Only brand name batteries like Eneloop and Duracell were performed exactly as specified. Another problem with off brand batteries is self-discharge. I had several batteries losing up to 70% of charge within one month. On the bright side with this charger you will find-out what batteries you can trust. Good luck!

Yes, the eneloop charger can be used with any NiMH rechargeable batteries, however, they must be charged in pairs.

I recharge my eneloops in a battery charger from a Canon digital camera (about 10 years old). All is good.

That energizer charger will charge your batteries at too high a rate and reduce both the life and number of cycles of your batteries. The Panasonic charger that is often sold with these batteries will charge your eneloops at the correct rate recommended by both Sanyo and Panasonic engineers to optimize the life of your batteries, (300mA for AA and 150mA for AAA).
