FEATURES

• Easy to use

• Intelligent microprocessor controlled

• “Negative Delta V” deletion

• Recharges all battery sizes: AA, AAA, C, D and 9V

• Recharges 1-4 batteries at a time

• Microprocessor monitors each charging bay

• Short-circuit protection

• LED and LCD display shows the status of each battery while it is charging

• Individual maximum timer control for overcharge protection

• Plugs into an AC outlet

• Charges these types of batteries:
Ni-Cd (Nickel Cadmium)
Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
Alkaline* and RAM (Rechargeable Alkaline Manganese)

*Because of the chemistry of standard alkaline batteries, they cannot be recharged nearly as

many times as standard rechargeable type batteries like Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries. However, the
Universal Battery Charger uses a recharge current of 130 mAh and the entire charging process
is controlled intelligently by microprocessors, which can recharge most standard alkaline
batteries to 75%-90% of their original capacity upwards of 30+ times depending on the quality
of the battery.

PLEASE NOTE: Standard alkaline batteries should be completely drained before recharging with
your Universal Battery Charger.
