Solid, Compact, with Clear Display
Optimum charging for any battery is C/5 where C = Capacity. I am using this charger to charge Ansmann 7.4V 6600 mAh NP-F970 batteries, so the high (H) setting of 1500 mA for a single battery or 800 mA x 2 when used to charge two batteries at the same time is perfectly adequate. So it should take around 4 hours to quickly charge a single battery pack. Any faster would only reduce the charge-recharge lifespan of the cells within each battery. I know people want to charge Li-Ion cells in as short a time span as possible, but this is not good for the longevity of the battery. Charging two batteries can easily be done overnight. The key to prolonged usage of Li-Ion cells is to not let the voltage drop too low, thus when capacity drops to around 30 percent or so, then they should be recharged. Even better is to recharge them when capacity is at 50 percent, plus will take less time to reach full again too.
I have not tested the USB-A charging port or the in-car portable lighter plug and cable, but having the option to recharge batteries on the move is an additional benefit.
So far, I am very pleased with this device, especially as the NP-F plates secure easily, the display is bright and clear, and overall the charger unit appears solid and well-constructed.
If you want more speed in charging, then buy additional chargers!

It serves it's purpose
I own this product for a month now, never had any problems, it is easy to use and is very helpful with knowing how much power there is in a battery. And you get adapter for charging in car which i did not use yet but it is nice to have that option. Will update if something changes.

NP-F Charger
It charges but I am just concerned about the speed of charge even on high it seems slow... but so far it hasn`t proven to be bad its good.

Great Charger
Great charger. Dual charging is very handy. Great LED display.
Only issue I have is I have to set it High charging if I want to charge quickly, every time I use it.

Brilliant, I can't recommend enough
Fantastic NP battery charger. Why wouldn't you want to charge 2 NP batteries at once. We use most of these batteries in duel devices. lights and monitors usually. Fantastic value, you won't be disappointed.

Reliable Battery Charger for NP-F/L-Series Batteries
Clear LCD indicates how full the connected battery is as a percentage. Charging is slow so I normally leave it overnight. It won't overcharge.
Will also charge another device via its USB output (no cable included).
Can be powered from mains (fig-8 socket) or 12V from a car cigarette lighter.
