Buyer's feedback: - * Small charger, BBBig power adaptor ...
Don't be fooled by the picture. The power adaptor is more than half of the charger!

Buyer's feedback: - Good product
This unit came with the latest version of the chraging program on it. The unit works well. It is used every day without any issues on the lithium batteries. However, if you have some old rechargeables that are completely dead this unit does not always start. So to address this I pop the "dead" batteries into a an old Radio Shack charger. This jumpstarts the batteries with a very small base charge. Then I put the batteries in the new La Crosse charger to condition them.

Buyer's feedback: - * Items in the box as of Sept 4, 2008 ...
I'd wager that many of you are comparing this to the Maha Powerex MH-C9000 WizardOne Charger-Analyzer as I was. The reviews by NLee that compare the two were quite helpful in providing background information. I was going to get the MH-C9000 but it included less stuff than the BC-900, it was more expensive than the BC-900, and it wasn't sold directly by Amazon so there would be additional shipping charges on top of the higher product cost. Based on those factors the BC-900 wins the price / performance comparison against the MH-C9000 right now.

One of the things that I was wondering, and you may be as well, is specific information on the capacities of the included batteries. Reading through the reviews it looks like La Crosse bumps up the included battery capacity periodically. The shipment I received today had 2600 mAh AA batteries and 1000 mAh AAA batteries and the charger had firmware version 35 on it. The side panel of the box does state what capacity the included batteries are. That's handy if you're in a brick & mortar store and have the box in your hands and can read the side panel, not so handy when you're ordering online and can't pick up the box.

The adapters are the same as before: AA goes into the C adapter which then goes into the D adapter. I doubt if that will change since it saves space. The case is the same as well. I agree with one of the other reviewers that it would be nice if the main compartment was actually segmented and padded to protect the charger. Not a huge thing but it would be nice.

The display is mighty handy for picking out suspect batteries. The La Crosse charger immediately showed two of my Powerex batteries were at a much lower voltage than the others even though they were all charged a few days ago. I'm pretty sure that at least one of them my old Maha 401 charger periodically didn't like. I've currently got the BC-900 putting them both through a refresh cycle.

And yes, you could check the voltage with a multimeter as well. That assumes that you have a multimeter, know where it is, that it has charged batteries, and that the cat / dog / other pet / child hasn't chewed through the test leads. I don't know about you, but by the time I manage to find the multimeter & it's pieces I've already forgotten why I was looking for it. Having the information in the charger itself means I (and probably you too) can check out suspect batteries when you're charging them without getting sidetracked and forgetting.

Buyer's feedback: - Find out if your batteries live up to their promise
Even though I have other intelligent chargers, I bought this one because it would charge cells individually and it had the ability to test and report capacity of batteries. I have a large number of different brands of NiMH batteries and I have found it quite interesting to see how the brands have actually compared to their "advertised" capacity. It has been quite an eye-opener.

Programming the thing is a little clunky if you want to make it do different things to different batteries at the same time, but if you want to do the same thing all inserted batteries, it is very easy to use. So far, I'm very happy with the unit.

Buyer's feedback: - * Amazing ...
This thing was better than i expected. I received firmware v35 which apparently doesn't have any problems like some older ones. Has some very useful features and it seems to charge to a higher capacity compared to my old charger. very happy overall plus best price i can find too.
