I have been looking all night to find more info on the charger, and the model number can be made out here:

A tip from Atlas:
Switch to USD as the currency at the last stage and pay $50.96 USD. According to Google this will come out at $49.85 AUD, and if you pay using your 28 degrees card it should come pretty close to this.

theredkrawler on 14/07/2012 - 20:46 ¶You say the charger is suitable for 240V, but I dont think it's going to be as easy as just plugging it in. The US sockets arent the same as our sockets and if they're including a US plug top then it physically wont fit - even if the voltage is supported.
Am I wrong in this, or do we need to factor in the price of an adapter as well? Admittedly some people may have them already, and they are cheap from DX / Meritline / etc.
+1 votetheredkrawler on 14/07/2012 - 20:51 ¶Did you edit that, or am I just blind as buggery? I swear I re-read that post multiple times to make sure there was no mention of US/AUS compatibility first sigh
+1 votegrimreeper on 25/07/2012 - 18:54 ¶Wait until clearly contacts gives away more free glasses, like a true ozbargainer.

Not sure whether it is the "quick version".
But these reviews say they charge fast: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/817165-REG/Sanyo_SEC_N...
It is the 'MDR02' if that helps.
Further digging:
The AC charger is designed for charging either 2 or 4 pcs. AA or AAA eneloop or other Ni-MH batteries. It can charge four AA rechargeable eneloop batteries in 7 hours or charge four AAA rechargeable eneloop batteries in 6 hours.

+3 votesSimple, aus post looses a small amount of money everytime a letter is posted and parcels are used to make up the loss (and then some).
Because of the quick fall in letters thanks to SMS, email, Skype and so on less letters are being posted.
So now all the extra money from parcels are mostly profit, in turn aus post has decided that since they have made record profits lately that they are bumping up the price of their service?
So thanks to the lack in competition it costs us more to post a small parcel across town then it does the same parcel from the other side of the world.
+1 voteI have noticed quite a lack of competition here. Home(NZ) is the same too, although there is slightly more competition from companies such as Fastways. Mum's online store offers flat rate $5 shipping, she tends to break even with some parcels costing less to post and some costing more. Aus being a larger land mass doesn't help the prices either I guess, shipping to the west is horrendously expensive, probably cheaper to book a flight from Perth to Sydney, pick up your new computer and fly back (on a LCC ofcorse).

Steptoe, have you tried those batteries? I want to know if they really are LSD, if so they would be the highest-capacity LSD NiMH batteries I have seen anywhere.
Hobbyking used to sell 2200mAh LSD AA batteries, and I have seen several reports that they are good LSD batteries. Now those are always listed as "on backorder", and only the 2400mAh batteries are shown as in stock. I am curious/dubious about a 2400mAh LSD AA NiMh battery, if Turnigy can make an LSD battery of that capacity, then why can't Sanyo/Panasonic?
+1 voteif you click on the Amazon deal, scroll down & you'll see a table comparing various Eneloop batteries
short answer: Eneloop have 2500mAh, but they are expensive & shorter life(500 cycle)
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/91ZJDSe-WpL.AA1500.jpgdoes anyone have any idea/picture how the battery case looks like? and is it a see-through case?

Thanks for that, I didn't know there are now 2500mAh Sanyo Eneloops, the "Sanyo XX" batteries:
http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-Capacity-Pre-Charged-Rechargeabl...Now I need to read up, to find out if the Turnigy batteries have a life past 500 charges…

found this in the comments.. though I guess you could make a bunch of separate orders?
quote
"You can only buy one of these batteries unless you pay for registered postage- Makes purchasing them VERY expensive. Postage for 8 batts on their own $14. If you include it with another order going registered almost doubles the postage cost. Even though it's only a NiMH, they still apply the same 3000mah limit they use for lipos."
stonedewok on 16/07/2012 - 17:48 ¶thanks for the tip steptoe, just bought 4 x 900mAH AAA for $6.95 shipped!
ibfragalot on 14/07/2012 - 22:39 ¶shaw - I like this, but I need 4 x C converters total (pack has 2). Can you advise the best way to get this pack, plus additional 2 converters/best price?
I'll make sure I use your affiliate link. Thanks.
ibfragalot on 14/07/2012 - 22:49 ¶Cool yep, found that just then :) I've added to the cart and appears to be all good.
Sweet. Thanks Shaw.
+5 votesibfragalot on 14/07/2012 - 23:11 ¶Gents - this is the standard 2 prong US plug right? We can just bend it a little, I've done plenty of times before with US plugs. Really need to spend another $2.50 for a clunky converter? This is Ozbargain afterall!!!
+1 voteibfragalot on 14/07/2012 - 23:23 ¶Its not usually very hard. I've changed my mind with this though, in case the charger has the prongs built into the case, then you don't want to bend them.
Plenty of places to get a US>AU plug converter online for a few bucks, so its a non issue :)
Just placed my order. Was very careful to make sure I clicked it thru via the affiliate link (deleted items and went back thru via it a few times! haha) Thanks for your deal finding efforts :)
+1 voteSounds like a good deal. The batteries alone are worth $40 plus shipping. But how good is the charger? Is it a "dumb" one?
It's the only thing holding me back, because I already have enough eneloop batteries and a smart charger so I don't really need this, but if that charger is smart and auto stops charging when full, then I'll find it hard to resist just on value alone. Can the charger also discharge a battery?
These batteries still have capacity memory don't they?

Pretty sure it is this one: http://www.eneloop.info/products/chargers/sets-with-mqr06.ht...

It says that, but where are these leds exactly?
EDIT: You were right.
Here's the unboxing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8CVUNq10vE
I think I will pass. The batteries alone still make it a good deal, but since I have more than I need (I can't think of too many AA devices that don't include batteries) I will pass for now.

Looks like a great deal. Is it possible to get chargers with very short charging times to use with these batteries (i have heard that you can get chargers that charge in as quick as 15 minutes). Any links to a decent one that would be compatible with these batteries would be fantastic

I don't imagine so, you could just subscribe/add a reminder or bookmark it, but it should still be the same or a similar price.

i've been umming and ahhhing this all night, and was just about to bite the bullet and get these
but i saw this
http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-Eneloop-Pre-Charged-Rechargeable...
2 less AA battery, but for $10 more it comes with fast charger? thoughtS?

This charger seems to have good reviews http://www.amazon.com/Sony-BCG34HRE4KN-Refresh-Pre-Charged-B...
But is there anything better and cheaper?

I might get this one myself:-
http://www.lacrossetechnology.com/bc700/index.php
pricier, but around $50 on ebay and seems worth it.

YES! I had one sent direct from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/La-Crosse-Technology-Battery-Charger/d...
For the BC500, which can charge from your car battery, I had to use Shipito.



Arguably 2 or 4 battery cell Chargers are NOT considered Smart Chargers. Individual channel chargers allowing 1,2,3 or 4 batteries are preferable. Although eneloops are well balanced, it would seem a pity to to put your expensive [gold standard] LSDs at risk by charging them in pairs. (Also some appliances, eg LED torches only use 1 or 3 cells).
Personally, I would disregard the inclusion of this basic charger [other than as a temporary backup unit] in the package price.

It seems it is http://www.eneloop.info/products/chargers/sets-with-mqn04.ht... in a different design, so it is the basic charger with a 16hr autotimer.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/permalink/mo3Q8FQX09... the model number can be made out from this image.

I've been looking at this one: http://www.amazon.com/La-Crosse-Technology-Battery-Charger/d...

So this charger is no good? I've been meaning to get some eneloops for a while now for my z96 video light to stop the flicker/strobing and a Canon battery grip.
I don't really mind that it's slower, but does it stop the charge automatically when the battery is full? If not, will it harms the batteries to keep them charging after they are full? (battery newb here!)

http://www.eneloop.info/products/chargers/sets-with-mdu01.ht... this one is AC powered, your one is USB ;)

Cheers for the deal been waiting for something like this!
I also bought this:
La Crosse Technology Alpha Power Battery Charger, BC1000
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004J6DLD4/ref=oh_details_o...
I felt the BC1000 was better value, for an extra $27.
See below for details, main difference that I could tell was the 1000 does up to 1000mA and the 700 does up to you guessed it 700mA and I read somewhere on some other forums that the eneloops ideally should be charged on 1000.
Also for the extra bucks you get La Crosse AA and AAA batteries, C and D converters and a carry bag! :)BC1000 http://www.lacrossetechnology.com/bc1000/index.php

But in the description itself that you posted it says: Automatically defaults to 200mA charge (the optimal setting for prolonging battery life)
So anything higher that this merely means it will reduce the total charging time? Is that correct?
I can't decide between these models and the maha c9000.

To the best of my limited understanding yes but I am no expert :)
I think if you go to http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/forum.php there is some discussion on there comparing them all etc.


help! it won't let me checkout the adaptor!
tells me it won't ship to my address?

+1 voteI had the same problem on the adapter, for some reason it seemed to go to 2 different links the 'crazy-store ships from Hong Kong' won't ship but the 'buyincoins ships from hong kong' will.
