Battery Chargers

A battery charger is a device that recharges rechargeable batteries with the current and voltage suited to their chemistry. It allows NiMH batteries used in devices such as camera flashes, game controllers, flashlights and toys to be used again and again. In this category, the battery charger Varta makes for NiMH batteries is sold individually. Choose the charger according to the battery chemistry, the battery sizes it supports (AA, AAA, C, D or 9V), the number of batteries it can charge at the same time, and the charging time. Charging time depends on the battery's capacity in mAh and the charger's charging current; the manufacturer's product information is the reference for slot dimensions and supported battery sizes. A NiMH battery charger does not replace a charger for lithium-ion batteries or lead-acid batteries: each battery chemistry requires its own charging method, and single-use alkaline and zinc carbon batteries are not made to be charged.
