Did you buy the charger online? Geez, 70 bucks for a charger though. The LCD is nice for sure -- but a cluster of LED's would be fine too if the cost was even half that.
Yes I bought it from the link I posted. Search these forums for that charger and you will get plenty of hits to read about it.
I felt the same way about spending that much on a charger, I don't have a lot of money to spend on things like this. I do not regret it one bit though, I feel like I have already saved in batteries. I use the charger twice a day, charge at most right now 12 batteries a day. I have 2 handheld scanners I use them in daily, thats 4 batteries twice a day, plus my other gadgets I use them in daily.
This charger will also recondition the batteries. So when they will no longer hold a charge, recondition them and they will be like new again. Yes, eventually these batteries will need to be thrown away. I have had this charger for several months and had the batteries longer and they are still going strong.
Again, search this forum for that charger, there has been discussions about it.
