## Description

The Powerex MH-C800S 8-Cell Smart Charger for AA / AAA NiMH / NiCD Batteries charges up to 8 AA or AAA nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) or nickel-cadmium (NiCD) batteries in approximately 1-2 hr. Charge your batteries anywhere around the world via the included 100-240V, 50/60Hz universal AC adapter. This power supply features a rugged DIN connector to ensure reliable contact. The charger has 8 independent charging circuits capable of charging 1-8 batteries in any combination. A large LCD screen shows the charging status of each battery. You have a choice of rapid and soft charge modes. Rapid charge enables 8 batteries to be fully charged to their maximum capacities in 1-2 hr. Soft charge takes about 3-4 hr but provides greater battery life, as well as compatibility with older, lower-capacity batteries. An integrated deep conditioning system charges, deep-discharges and then recharges batteries automatically, in order to offer maximum rejuvenation. The charger's 8th generation MH-NM7008 Powerex Precision Microprocessor ensures batteries are charged to their maximum capacities without being over- or undercharged. It affords maximum battery longevity, delivering just the right amount of charge every time.

Review: Does what it says on the tin - I use a lot of batteries and very early decided that rechargeables were the most practical option. I became aware that whilst the charger I used 'worked' there was a gradual decline in the performance of my batteries. Research on line directed my attention to the Powerex charger I have no regrets about making the decision to buy this eight cell smart charger. It has rejuvenated the oldest of my batteries and it recharges effectively and in a reasonably short time. The device is well made and I expect that it will perform well for a long time to come, (I will post again if it fails to deliver). I feel sure that I will be enjoying the value long after I have forgotten the price.
Review: Very expensive, poor performance - I am writing this review exactly four years after purchasing this charger. We use A LOT of rechargeable batteries and I wanted a 'professional' quality charger: one that could re-condition the batteries, have the ability to charge each battery independently and have more than the standard four slots. From all the positive reviews, this charger certainly sounded promising. Now four years on it has stopped working. OK, some might say that four years is not bad, but I have cheaper chargers that are far older. I was also never impressed by the display - very faint and so difficult to read. Finally, I have re-inserted batteries that the charger has just finished charging only to find that it shows the same battery as only half charged! Back to my old cheap charger for now until I find a decent replacement. Not at all impressed by this charger.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many mA it is?**
A: 1000 ma is the default mode.   500 ma is the SOFT mode.   Charge cutoff is 1.485 V.   Discharge cutoff is 1.000 V.    COND discharge rate is 300 ma.

**Q: Can i charge for example only 4 batteries? I want to buy this, but i do not need all 8 to be charged. My needs are small but i want the best product.**
A: You can charge any number from 1 to 8. However they all must be charged at either the fast mode, slow mode or recycle mode.

**Q: is this a good charger for somebody who just goes thru alot of AA's for home use? just to charge and use and recharge?  is it reliable?**
A: Seems to be good. The secret appears to be that rechargeable batteries need to be totally exhausted every 10 recharges. This Charger has that capability. According to a friend in the TV biz, you need high quality rechargeable batteries too. He recommended POWERX, more expensive of course. Available online, I couldn't find them in the stores. Good luck. PR

**Q: WILL IT CHARGE rechargeable rechargeable energizer aa batteries**
A: Yes, it will charge any AA or AAA sized NiMH or NiCad rechargeable battery.

### ⭐ Very expensive, poor performance
*by A***I on 20 January 2021*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best charger i've ever had!
*by M***B on 13 September 2014*

I bought this around 6 months ago after previously having the Uniross 15 minute charger that started failing to charge properly. This charger charges individual batteries and also rejuvenates old rechargeable batteries that my uniross wouldn't even read anymore...It really is a fantastic charger and was worth the money even though it was quite pricey! If mine broke tomorrow i wouldn't hesitate in buying another, it is that good! Top Tip: Buy Eneloop batteries for your digital camera as they last far longer than any other rechargeable batteries! This charger charges 8 Eneloop batteries in around 1 hour.
