FIRST, THE BASICS

The LaCrosse BC-900 Recharger is the charger for anyone needing the very best in battery charging performance. Its advanced feature set is unsurpassed amongst all current NiMH rechargers. It does things other chargers can only dream about.

Like others, it has four independent charging banks, so each cell is individually and optimally charged. (An inherent problem with this kind of charger is an inability to charge all four cells equally for optimal performance in a set.) Our lab testing has confirmed that the BC-900 does not have that problem, and we have determined that all four cells are charged equally and thoroughly.

It also accepts any brand or capacity AA or AAA, NiMH or NiCd, battery. You can use it to charge virtually anything you've got or ever will get. (Its maximum charging capacity is 3000mAh, so it will be a while before we get there.)
