BC-900 Works Fine November 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Rather than repeat the nearly 400 reviews on Amazon.com, I simply want to agree that this battery charger (Version 3.5 purchased 11/08) works just fine. Unlike others, I don't have a problem with the buttons, it hasn't gotten hot, and it does what it should; charges, discharges then charges, and more. It provides lots of information, too, which I find very helpful.
La Crosse BC 900 Charger and More November 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The charger charges, conditions, checks and renews old rechargable batteries to the highest levels they can hold. Its surprising to see some of the older 2500mh batteries hold less charge than the Enelope and other lower capacity batteries.
I was nervous about the charger getting hot or burning up as others may suggest. The charger does not get hot; however batteries, like with any charger, may get warm depending upon the charge rate and the battery. I've checked and charged all my nimh batteries (over 40), and none have gotten hot. The charger also has two thermal shutoff switches, which you can see under the battery slot.
Definitely buy the BC900 with the battery kit since it gives you more flexibility in charge rate over the BC700, and you also get the extra batteries and adapters for not much more.
Full-Featured Battery Charger November 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm an advanced amateur photographer, and use lots of AA battery power for off-camera strobes. My rechargeable Ni-Mh batteries were getting more and more tired, delivering fewer and fewer flashes while being recharged with my generic, featureless rechargers. I had read about the LaCrosse units on [...], and decided to buy some of them. The first thing I did was to use the "refresh" mode on a set of batteries. After that, I noticed much longer battery life from those same batteries than I had been getting before. The LaCrosse units transformed the tired batteries into the like-new performance I expect. I highly recommend the LaCrosse chargers.

BEST CHARGER EVER !! November 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have owned literally dozens of AA and AAA chargers over the years, and some of them were fast, some were slow, but they all lacked one thing: the intelligence to insure that the battery was properly charged. The La Crosse charger has added new life to several sets of my batteries, and my cameras and flash units all run longer than ever before!! A great, inexpensive product!!
