Westinghouse Battery Charger w/ 4x AA & 4x AAA Rechargeable Batteries $10 + Free Shipping

$10 too much IMHO. I stay away from all these "deals". I give you about 12 months to realize you wasted $10

Since I already got a Lacross and a Panasonic charger, I'll save my $10 on good Eneloops batteries.

X000 mAH for the AA ones. Very probably 1000 mAh, which is way too low...
Also AAA has 850 mAH. Meh...

I shall PASS this one...

Quote from fymfaholes : The reason this is a good deal is that the batteries are cheap relative to normal price AND you get a charger. But be aware, rapid chargers result in shorter battery life. Cheap ones are likely to be worse at it. And these are not LSD (Low Self Discharge) as noted already. LSD hold a charge better without constantly requiring a trickle charge. And they hold it longer. There was just recently a deal for 12 for $13 for Tenergy AAA. Westinghouse is in the same category. Still, if you are looking to buy rechargeable batteries and a charger, this is one of the cheapest deals I have seen.

THIS! "Fast Chargers" are nothing more than battery cookers! EVEN if the batteries that come in this set were any good they would die quickly by being fast charged.

To ME this is no deal at all!...

The blister pack image at the website shows 2000mah for the AA's. I am going to give them a shot just for the batteries... I spent $10 on way worse things...

Quote from unlimitedmp : I don't see a mention of LSD anywhere. It's better to wait for a better deal on Eneloop, Duracell, or Rayovac LSD rechargeables. Especially in devices like remotes and game controllers. Correct me if wrong about the LSD part.

I can have LSD? Plzz

Thank you OP, it is a very good price.

There was a day when the Westinghouse name meant something. Now, it's just something to avoid.

Quote from ysap : . I do, however, buy only eneloops (or rebranded eneloops, like the white head-ring Duracells). Along with a smart charger (the Lacross is currently a Front-Page deal) they keep performing perfectly in toys and photo gear and other electronics. Based on my experience, I would not recommend any other battery.

i Agree 1000X .. we use a TON of rechargeable batteries at work .. after wasting lots of money we have found out that a LaCross charger and eenlope batteries are the best bang for the money .. there are so many rechargers out there that dont fully charge - and so many rechargeable batteries that don't hold a charge - that you are truly wasting you money if you buy any of these - even though this deal is only 10 - you are throwing your money away ..

save your money - get a LaCross Charger and eenlope batteries and you will be happy ...

PS - when i say that we use allot of rechargeable batteries at work - i mean allot - we have over 1000 of them operating in the warehouse -- and all of them eenlope .. we do have lots of GEs and Westinghouses, and Chinese crap that made it to the dumpster after one or two uses...

In-4-1 ... I need the charger more than the batteries, unless my current charger is good and my batteries are all bad?

Eh, can't justify NOT getting this set All I want is a cheap set anyway, maybe in the future I will look into the eneloops.

Here's a link to a smart, compact, international charger:

Sony Cycle Energy BCG34HLD2RN [amazon.com]

It is not as sophisticated as the LaCross (no full discharge, IIRC, for example), but it will charge any combination of AA/AAA batts, even or odd numbers.

I bought this for my father last October for $11.29+FS from DependableResource via Amazon, together with a pack of eneloops. Note that the included batteries are low-capacity, non-LSD. If you wait, some good deal on that may return.
