Digital camera reviews of Sony 15 Minute Battery Charger with 4 AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries
Digital camera Review: 15 minutes! Some bad batteries after couple use.
Summary: 3 Stars
This charger really does the job. But the battery also gets really hot when charging. Maybe that ruins the battery, I'm not sure. Also, it doesn't charge all batteries in 15 minutes.
Four of my no-brand ebay 2300 mAH made in china batteries no longer works in this charger. Also the Fuji 2100 mAH battery died after several 15 minute charge. I think the messed up batteries were because they were also old (mostly 1 year).
Three out of Four Sony batteries that came with this charger are working properly after one year of light use. I don't know why, but one of them hold only a little capacity now. I'm hoping the charger didn't mess up the battery. But it is really convinient that it only takes 15 minutes to go.

All four of the Sony batteries are now useless. They only hold a charge for couple minutes after fresh recharge. I got scared of ruining my other rechargables, so I stopped using this. Instead, I bought couple enerloop from Sanyo, with a Rayovac hybrid battery charger which takes about 12 hours to fully recharge. I've been using Rayovac charger and the eneloop batteries for almost 6 months now, and it still works well. I'd say avoid the 15 minute chargers, unless you are willing to replace the batteries every 3-6 months.
