## Overview

The Powerex MH-C980 Turbo Charger Analyzer is a premium 8-slot NiMH battery charger that combines rapid 2000mA turbo charging with a one-touch health analyzer to deliver precise capacity readings. Its thermal management system ensures safe, cool charging, while a deep conditioning mode revitalizes old batteries, making it the ultimate tool for professionals who demand efficiency, sustainability, and battery longevity.

## Description

The Powerex MH-C980 Turbo Charger-Analyzer charges up to 8 AA or AAA nickel-metal hydride batteries in approximately 1 hour. This charger is the best combination of an 8-cell charger with battery health analyzing features. It has a special One-Touch Battery Health Analyzer with actual capacity readout to provide the most accurate data. The Turbo charge mode allows you to charge your batteries twice as fast while the default mode will maximize battery life. With the Thermal Management System, your batteries will stay cool during charge. For older batteries, you can use the Deep Battery Conditioning System to revitalize them. The large backlit LCD display allows you to take quick glance of the charging status.

Review: I bought this one because I wanted a charger that could actually tell me if th ebattery was any good. Speed charges that came with the NiMH batteries tended to say the battery was no longer useful (for a speed charge) after only a few months. Great for the manufacturer, not so much for the consumer. I had to always go back to the slow charger that came with the battery (old school) because it at least apeared to charge the battery. This charger actually tells you how much charge (in mAh) EACH battery took. Simple comparison of that figure against the battery capacity, and you know if the battery works or not. First thing I did was to charge all the batteries I had using the Conditioner mode to see if they were recoverable. That takes 24H. Charger showed that 2 out of 15 were no longer useful. I highly recommend this charger. Really easy to use. Of the eight slots, each slot is handled like it own charger. Mix and match AA and AAA as much as you want. The charger keeps track of everything.
Review: With this very electronically-based lifestyle many of us have adapted, I realized I was frequently buying new batteries for our remote controls, 'emergency' flashlights, etc. I no longer need to purchase new AA/AAA batteries after purchasing this amazing Powerex MH-C980 Turbo Charger Analyzer. I have the plastic containers of fully recharged batteries near my TV remotes and in my office. This. energy positive practice makes me satisfied that I am not wasting more natural resources but reusing what I have and saving money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What exactly does the conditioning mode do?  how does it compare to the refresh and analyze mode of the mh-c9000?**
A: The Conditioning mode on the C980 is very similar to the Refresh and Analyze mode on the C9000, but with fixed settings.   The C980 will charge at 1000mA and discharge at 200mA where on the C9000, it is adjustable.

**Q: What is the mah per aa and aaa battery that it charges at? Is it always 2000mah / amount of batteries?**
A: There are 2 charge modes. Turbo Mode which charges each AA battery at 2 amp and AAA at 1 Amp. In regular mode it will charge AA at 1 Amp and AAA at 0.5 amp.

**Q: Can you leave batteries on the charger after the charge is complete for extended times?**
A: Powerex advises not to leave them in the charger. They do not say why. I don't think it makes any difference to the batteries. However, having a battery in a slot will keep the charger from going into standby/sleep mode, so the screen might remain lit. Doing that for a really really long time might eventually damage the LCD screen, perhaps. I don't think it's going to actually do any more charging, or damage anything electronically. But I'd heed their advice within reason. I can think of numerous other reasons to follow their advice and store the batteries when they are charged.

**Q: Does this new model, with updated software, do a better job of refreshing older batteries than the older MH-C9000?**
A: In theory, there should be little to no difference. In each case the battery is charged, then discharged to zero, then recharged as far as it will go. On the 9000 you can choose the charge/discharge rates. The 980 works at preset rates. Some people say slower charging results in a battery filled to a higher percentage of capacity, so I'd prefer to have that option. In any case the results should be similar. You'd have to measure voltage and mAh in both cases, but I would not expect huge differences. I also don't see why the device software should matter, as long as it is functioning correctly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by P***M on 30 January 2021*

This charger has fewer settings than the Maha Powerex MH9000 which I also have, but it does the analyze or charge at both standard and turbo modes, the turbo being double the standard charge rate. This would only be useful if you need a lot of quick turnover. I typically use the standard charge or analyze. Be aware that the analyze function takes quite a while. I mainly use it overnight. Definitely a 5 star product!
