| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Neat, self-contained unit
Traveled abroad with this.
Multi-voltage, no cords (though it can obscure a 2nd socket if it has to go in the top one for any reason).
Charges 2 at once, which is really convenient, but note that it takes almost 2x as long as doing one. | 5 | Today | Compact, affordable, and VERY useful 2x over.
If you are like many videographers, you have more than one battery. It's easy to start charging one, and forget to do the other. This baby will charge TWO batteries at a time. Or one if you like.
I charged an FP-960 clone and FP-970 at the same time. Sony says it is ok though the web info doesn't say it is supported. Infolithium batteries practically tell the charger it is done, so it is safe.
Naturally, charging two at once takes twice as long. If one battery finishes first, it trickle charges and the light goes out. Thus allowing faster charging on the other battery. Full charging is done about an hour after the light goes out.
As I recall it is a max 1000ma so, there is less chance of over heating the batteries during charging, thus minimizing damage. Aside from the slower dual charge, there is nothing bad I can say about it. Folding plug prongs makes it very easy to pack.
It lacks a car adaptor, but that doesn't seem needed when you have two fully charged batteries. No serious user of Info-lithium batteries should be without it! | 5 | Today |
