If just starting... try this one [amazon.com].
If money is no object, and you want the best, then get eneloop rechargeables and a Nitecore UMS4 for instance.
Personally I have 2 Nitecore chargers and a about 40 AA/AAA rechargeables (Tenergy, EBL, amazon, RayHom, Toshiba, eneloop) and in more than 10 years I had to discard only 1 or 2 of them because they did not charge.
I opted for Nitecore chargers because I'm using 18350's almost daily, but if you only care for AA and AAA, then a Duracell, EBL or Tenergy charger should serve you well.

IMPORTANT: sometimes a AA/AAA rechargeable may discharge under 0.8V and as a result many chargers won't recognize and charge the element. In this aspect, Nitecore D2 is a charger that will 'revive' a 'dead' rechargeable, if not having one you should check online how to use another battery and 2 wires to revive the "dead element".

Def a solid deal, though as a benchmark of what is possible, I grabbed 100 count Amazon AA for $20 with SS (5%) back about a week ago, netting me $0.20/battery. Still $0.30/battery is really solid if you don't want 100 or need them right away.

No idea why folks are still paying 100+ times the cost per use of rechargeable batteries. Isn't that SlickDeals? I know, I know...alkalines are "better" for low drain, I can't be bothered to teach my kids to not toss rechargeable, I don't have kids that will feel the effects of my waste, blah, blah, blah. Still, seems silly to me that these junk battery deals keep coming up here.
Could you please suggest a good rechargeable charger and AA batteries.

Rechargeable are inconvenient for my iot devices and door locks. Especially the locks if rechargeable are in them I only get about a day warning that they are low before they are dead and then I can't use the lock.

Eneloop brand are the gold standard. There is presently a slick deal for Eneloop Pro AAA batteries and a charger on Amazon if you want to go that route until there is a AA Eneloop deal.

I have bought these in the past and I was not impressed. The Rayovacs AA seemed to work longer. The amazon batteries in my Roku remote do not even last 4 months and they are in a remote for a TV that is not used very much. I will be switching to rechargeable batteries.

Add in trying to charge alkalines when there's a mix of rechargeables and alkalines. Not just kids but office workers too.

Anyone have good experience with these? Just read the first 5 reviews on Amazon and they seem pretty scary. From battery leaking to being dead in a few months.
