Just a warning to others, the description here (and at B&H) is wrong. This charger will only charge 2 or 4 cells at a time, not "8" as it claims. Also note, you must have 2 cells at a time with this charger... it won't charge 1 or 3. I have this charger and can confirm this... in addition the manufacturer's site confirms this as well: https://mahaenergy.com/mh-c204gt-charger/

It's a good charger. I wasn't as impressed with the batteries (I had them like 10 years ago, though, so maybe they're better now). The better charger is their C401, which has 4 independent charge circuits (one for each cell/battery)... but this one is still quite good.

Can it fit 4xAAA and 4xAA at the same time? It looks (on pictures) like it has separate lower slots for AAA, so I wonder if you can put 2 sets of batteries in 2 levels.
But yeah, if it has only 2 charging circuits it probably doesn't make any sense even if you can fit 8 batteries.

The batteries are great. I've used them for years. You can get a better charger that will soft charge and condition batteries.

No, you can't fit AA and AAA at the same time, even though it has two tiers. For one thing, they just don't fit. for another, there are only 2 charge circuits in there... so doing so would end up putting 4 cells (2 AA and 2 AAA) on a single charge circuit, which is not the intended operation.

I believe the manual states you shouldn't do this, either.
