With most people using batteries in pairs, the limitations of a 2-channel charger shouldn't be significant. However, note that you don't have to pay a million dollars more for a comparable 4-channel model (where each battery is recharged independently).
In fact, IKEA has their model [ikea.com] widely available for $7.
Alternately, Costco has often sold a four-channel charger in starter kits (so with batteries) for under $20.
Good luck!

The biggest problem is that rechargeable AA batteries have a nominal voltage of 1.2v as opposed to 1.5v of a typical battery. For some devices this works fine, but I have simply run into too many instances were they don't work, or only work for a very short period of time. Some devices, for example, require six AAs. That would normally be 9v, but with 6 rechargeables it's only delivering 7.2v - the device powers on for a split second and shuts off again.
They also seem to lose quite a bit of charge when sitting idle.
I'm going back to waiting for the $0.25 per battery deals on normal AAs. Way less headache, they're actually full when you grab a new one, and I also don't have to worry about losing them.
I'm sure for other people it's different, but for me they're just not worth using.

Is 21$ a good price ?

The charger in that example is a 8-battery, single-channel USB-C powered model (you have to supply the USB-C power brick).
Definitely a diffferent beast to the charger on offer here or something like the $7 IKEA model mentioned earlier.
Good luck!

"top/nipple" isn't long enough to reach the metal slot in devices.
