When You Need Your Batteries Now By Annette Beason on Oct 30, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I bought the Digital Concepts 2 Hour Charger when I was shopping for replacement rechargeable batteries. For just a few dollars more than what I would have paid for 8 batteries, I got not only 8 batteries (4 AA and 4 AAA), I also got a charger that would charge them in only 2 hours. The best thing about it is the charger will charge both AA and AAA batteries and you can charge either 2 or 4 at a time. Of course, the greatest thing is that it only takes 2 hours. You just pop your batteries in and plug it in the wall or you can even use an adapter to plug it in the cigarette lighter of your car. The green light flashes to let you know it's charging. When the light stops flashing you know your batteries are ready to use. If you're going to buy batteries anyway, you'll want to get this charger. You won't have to wait so long for your batteries to charge again.
