Hi
I am looking an intelligent battery charger looking to charge AA, AAA & 18650 battery types.
I have looked at a few and I just cant decide. Prefer one that charges 4 X AA batteries at once for my flash.
Any advice appreciated.

regards Darren :banana:
 
I bought a Panasonic BQ-CC16 Smart from Maplins, it charges 4* AA or 4* AAA at once, I don't know about 18650 s I don't know what they are.
 
By 18650 batteries, do you mean the Lithium ones? If so, I'm fairly sure they need their own special charger, and I'm not sure if you can get a charger to do NiMH as well as Lithium? Also, be careful where you buy from as from what I've read there seem to be quite a few 'fake' branded chargers out there, which can have serious consequences if charging lithium batteries (like fire and explosion!).

Technoline bl700 is great for a & aaa but doesn't do 18650, got a great charger from Amazon which takes 18650s - Three T BT- C3100, not had a chance to review it yet, allows choice of current as low as 200mA up to 1000mA, discharge refresh test etc, recommended.
 
BL700 might be good but OP wants charger which takes 18650 batteries
 
sorry folks for not responding but I am getting no notifications on this ???? , I will look into each mentioned..
18650 are used in a few torches that I have and I am cautious when charging them also.

regards..
 
Technoline doesn’t charge 18650s I repeat [emoji6] I'd go for the one above I recommended or the youshica 5000, only real difference is mine does 200mA up to 1000, youshica does 300-1000 mA.
 
The charger above doesn't take 18650 batteries unfortunately, also fast chargers are not a good idea if you like to take care of your batteries & prolong their working life.
