Your title abit misleading...

Hmmm actually your combination should be quite ok, unless you want a faster charger. Remember NiMh requires some muscle flexing before it works optimally... In the beginning, they usually work better after each full discharge - charge cycle... 5 cycles later, they should be quite ok.

And yah... NiMh loses stored power over time... If its charged and has been sitting on the desk for a week, the lost in power can be noticable, especially in high drainage device like DCs...

I went to Safe Superstore today and saw a Sony charger selling at about $45 with 2 x 1700mAh. And on the other side the GP Rapid Power Bank (2hr rapid charge) with 4x1600mAh at about $49
Are they any good? One thing I can comment on is that both charger are very light. Should be good for traveling (not sure if can use on 110v power system :dunno: )

Isn't it a Worldwide version. Remember it's confirmed to be 110v-240v or something similar. Also, someone did also mention that it's not a time based charger, as he tried to charge a fully charged battery, and the charger off by itself after 5 mins.

Any expert can confirm?

Arrgh...

The salesperson there told me that those Casio chargers are not for sale. They are to be packaged/bundled with a camera...

It's OK.

It's quite near to my office, just within walking distance, so don't take it to heart.

I bought a Casio charger BC-3HA yesterday at AP. Is this what you guys are looking for?

 

[Prime]

Yes, that's the one!
How do you find it?
Attractive exterior design isn't it?
BTW how much did you pay for it?

 

[MaGixShOe]

is this the $40 or $80 one?

 

[Spidey]

I paid $50 for it.

 

[Prime]

I paid $50 for it. I was quote $80 initially...
Remember someone paid $45 and another paid $60 for it...
