After I got the charger on the 15th of July 2024 there has not been a safe rechargeable battery in the house that could escape from not being put in this charger. I am not just talking about my batteries I currently use in my mods.
I put this charger through its pace with different sizes rechargeable batteries ,old rechargeable batteries, new rechargeable batteries and even dead rechargeable batteries (Yes you reading this kind sir I know you have that secret stash of dead vape batteries and you still have not cleared that web browser history) and this charger came out tops with no issues.
And since, sorry for the swear word, load shedding (that has not happened in a while shhhhhh touch wood fast) we all have accumulated quite a few rechargeable batteries and this charger will charge them all super fast.
Well here we go I hope you guys enjoy
