I have had good experience with batteryspace.com. I bought a V2000 Superfast Smart Charger +12 AA 2300mAh + 12AAA 750mAh, Universal Power 110- 240V ( for $33.79 ). That was an awesome deal last year, considering that the charger was universal and I got a charger which charges the batteries in less than 2 hours. Nowadays they have upgarded this charged to V3150 which has better quality and compact size. My AA batteries still work as new, although I believe that after 75 recharges, the batteries take more time to charges (@ 100 minutes) instead of earlier time which used to be about 70-80 minutes. The charger shows a red light when it is charging and green light when the batteries are charged. That keeps the wondering away and I can unplug the charger as soon as I am done. My digital camera (which uses this batteries) has never complained, but when using a digital camera, my personal advise is to keep an extra pair in hand, in case one set goes dry. This particular model is not longer available, but batteryspace.com has a good set of charger/battery combos at batteryspace.com and click on the left link that says Cells/ Charger combo and select the one you want. There are some concerns with quick chargers that the batteries get very hot. Trust me, they dont. For batteries, brand Powerizer (also available at batteryspace.com) sufficed for me. Go for the ones rated at 2300mAH. They (pack of 4) lasted about 300 digital photos for me on my Canon PowerSHot A75 which also included some vidoes, which is very power consuming. I am not sure if it actually cyles the battery before charging it. You can get more details from batteryspace.com. But it has support for world wide voltage. (110-220V) Powerizer Slim charger for NiMH/Nicd rechargeable battery charger. . The above mentioned features mention about being microprocessor controlled but I am not sure about battery cycling. If you go for combo deals (battery + charger) at batteryspace.com, that will be the best and you have a lot of choices. All the best in your search.
