too good to pass up October 27, 2008 Extremely light weight yet packs a punch. Ideal to put in your camera bag to recharge a set of batteries when you are away on a mini-vacation of a full-time photo expedition.

Nice product October 24, 2008 This is my 2nd Sony battery charger and I really liked it. It is so handy & easy to use compare to my early one with cords & etc.
A quality charger that just works, works, and works! October 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It's hard to estimate a quality product that's not showy until you have to deal with one of those no-brand chargers. Clunky desing, overheating, charges that don't last and impossible to know when the batts are ready. This device not only does all it's expected, but also advices you in a simple, perfect way when the batteries are dead (blinking light). Like a laconic/ minimalist "monk", it dispenses with fluff and keeps it simple. If only Windows (PC) manufacturers could learn from this things, right :)?
PS: Yes, it works with AA and AAA batteries. It's in the specs, but just in case you were wondering.
These leave Alkis in the DUST! October 6, 2008 I do a lot of instrumental music recording and performing, and I use these Sony rechargeables EXCLUSIVELY in my gear, the most power-hungry of which are my Zoom H2 Handy Portable Stereo Recorder and my GigLight Compact LED Music Stand Light. I also use them in my Canon PowerShot A720IS 8MP Digital Camera with 6x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom when going "optical" rather than "audible."
I can EASILY record two hours of music on my H2 with two of these batteries at 44.1kHz, 16-bit. I have never even come close to their running out early, and I've never had the device quit because of a lack of power. And I have recharged these MANY times for MANY gigs.
Loading my GigLight with these, I have found I can run it OVERNIGHT -- even 24 hours! -- and not drain them completely.
Plus, the batteries last between 200-400 pictures in my Canon, depending on whether I'm using a lot of flash and whether or not I leave the AF on "continuous." I'm never short of power. It's amazing.
Charge time is very reasonable, and this handy carry-case (while the key ring is a bit ambitious) keeps my batteries together when I use the H2, which uses only 2, but keeps a spare pair at the ready if I need them.
These leave Alkis in the dust! HIGHLY recommended -- and that's high praise because I'm generally NOT a Sony fan. But I am a fan of these!
