Does anyone have a first hand experience with this? I have been looking for a charger that doesn't need charge in pairs

I would steer clear of buying this. I found an XTAR VC4 for about $16 shipped last year; it can charge both NiMH and Li-ion cells. If you want a fancier one that does more than just simply charge then I would suggest looking at a Vapcell S4 Plus.

I purchased the Nitecore Digi D4. Is this charger better than that?

Man, if it can charge all these different battery sizes, I'm in.

Thanks OP.

I don't have experience with this model, but I have had a terrible experience with EBL's batteries and a different charger. I'd definitely stay away from the brand if I were you.

I don't have experience with this particular EBL charger, just the smaller one that charges only AA and AAA. Bought it a couple years ago because it can charge single batteries at a time (vs needing to be a pair like the old Eneloop one). Works great. It's no where near as detailed as that XTAR VC4, but it does tell you how charged each battery is and if the battery is no longer good. I've been charging Amazon and Eneloop batteries with no issues.

The Nitecore D4 charges li-ion batteries and is thus more flexible at least.

HKJ, who I trust most for battery and charger reviews, has tested only one EBL charger and it's not this one. They said it was a decent charger and fast, but that the fast charging would be hard on batteries.

Same here. I bought there rechargable battery. Extremely terrible quality. They cannot hold charge as they claim. Stay away from this brand

Typical cheap chinese charger. Runs hot doesn't and charge if battery levels too low. No deal here.

While I have had issues with their batteries, I have used this charger for 2 years. I 100% agree their batteries have issues, but the charger has done well for Amazon brand and Eneloops.

Edit: And it's a B on Fakespot...
