No reliability
I bought two of these 2 years ago and neither has ever worked correctly. I phoned Energizer and they gave me a hanful of tips to try, but nothing works. Sometimes they will accept to charge 2 batteries but that is very rare. Most of the time I can not get them to work. I haven't lost my faith in Engerizer but this product appears to have flaws that can not be fixed.

Great
I have charged different kind of rechargeable batteries (even of different brands), with no problem. I have used it since one year.

Charged once, won't charge again
The first time I charged the included 4 batteries it took a way longer than 8 hours. It kept showing 8 hours for around 3 hours, then got stuck again at 6 and so. After charging, it didn't last half as long as regular batteries from Energizer. The second time I tried to charge the batteries, the charger said that two out of the 4 batteries were dead.
And I thought "Lets buy the most expensive charger we can find". Totally disappointed. Won't buy energizer again.

No Good
I just bought a Smart Charger today. I put in batteries to charge. The directions say it will show 5,4,3,2, or 1. Mine is showing an 8. Then, after a few hours, I had x's in all batteries on the display. But they are Nickel-Hydride batteries. I don't understand. And when I checked the batteries, they're all charged, but the charger said they were bad.
I think I'll bring it back & get my money back.

BAD BAD WORSE
I spent $50.00 for the Charger with a starter set of batteries and an extra set of batteries. Nothing works. Chargers does not charge, batteries won’t hold a charge. Read the directions over and over, nothing works.
Do not buy.

Will not Hold AAA Batteries
This unit spits the AAA Battieries out everytime I plug it in. I thought I was buying the Best Charger. Turns out it will only Hold AA Battieries. Not worth the Money!!

poor
I have an number of AA everready rechargables. I have had lithium, NIMh and Nicad over the years. Never had much luck with any of them. I assume the cheap chargers don't have the best circuitry in them to properly condition and charge but not overcharge the batteries. Or maybe it is also the batteries.
