Just what I needed

Pros: This is just what I needed to charge my CR123A's. It charges them in about 1 - 2 hours, has 2 LED status lights, interchangeable voltages (3.6v or 3v) and can be used from 110v - 249v power (auto switching)


Cons: I live in australia and it came with a US plug :(. No big deal though because it takes figure 8 power leads (The one used in most laptop chargers).


Other Thoughts: I can charge sku.932 with the help of a few rare earth spacers. Just need to make sure it's set at 3.0v


Bottomline: Reasonable price, Charges CR123A and CR2's


Perfect charger for RCR123A

Pros: Great littel charger for "safe" CR123 batteries, like SKU.1880
I use it to charge my SKU.1880 LiFePO4 batteries for my Fenix flashlight.
It charges them to around 3.3volts, off the charger, which I think is just perfect and safe (LiFePO4 can still be damaged by overcharge, will just not explode).


Cons: Voltage switch is recessed quite much, so that it requires a ballpen or something to flip it. But that might also be a pro for some, as it would not be switched by accident.


Other Thoughts: The included cable is with american plug, but the charger is world voltage capable and standard cables fits fine.


Bottomline: If you like me, have a flashlight where protected cells wont fit (Fenix), this and a couple of LiFePO4 cells is a nice alternative.

Pros: This is a simple to use, easily understandable, functional charger. The build quality is excellent and the charger feels sturdy even though it weighs next to nothing.


Cons: Only that you have to remember to switch from 3.0 to 3.6 when switching between battery types or suffer the consequences.


Other Thoughts: This is an excellent charger that is easy to use and store. I prefer the power chord over the wall charger. The instructions were easy to understand and the charger is well labeled so that even those inexperienced with chargers could figure it out instructions.


Bottomline: This is the perfect charger if you have mountains of cr123a 3.0/3.6v rechargeable batteries.
