Product reviewsSmart Charger for AA AAA ALKALINE Batteries Lloytron Mains Intelligent Fast 2 hr

A genuine money saving device.

Does what it says on the tin and if you have lots of battery powered items, it'll pay it's way pretty quickly. Alkaline batteries are a little more expensive, but with one of these, again, the costs work themselves out. The only problem I've had is the lid is a bit flimsy. A drop onto carpet meant that one of the bumps it fits onto has broken off. The lid isn't necessary for it to work though and a bit of duct tape sorted it, at the expense of it's fine looks. Hey ho. My fault probably. That apart, good kit!Read full review...

check the small print

be careful - it looks identical to the one I had that takes rechargeable batteries but this is for normal/ batteries. Personally think that actually makes it a better option as normal batteries are cheaper to buy in the first placeRead full review...

Built for the Job, don't be fooled with cheap copies.

I had one of these a few years ago and used it to recharge Duracel batteries, it always worked great but it eventually gave up the ghost after many years of good work. I made the mistake of buying a cheap copy that looked exactly the same but wasn't up to the job, so I searched for a LLoytron one again and hey presto back up and running. The moral is you get what you pay for. Don't buy a cheapie, they don't do the job.Read full review...

Does what it claims

Seems to recharge a variety of alkaline batteries well enough, something you cannot do in a regular charger. Whether its an economical proposition long-term (given the price of alkalines) remains to be seen but it certainly does what it claims and at least gets the most out of them before recycling is the only option. Ideal for small kids toys. Have recharged Duracell batteries in a smoke alarm successfully.Read full review...

First impressions - good.

Only used this once so far, but did recharge ok. Will see how it goes as I use quite a lot of alkaline batteries and hopefully this will do the job and save me some money

Smart Enough

It's light and easy to connect. The alkaline batteries I've tried seem to be well charged. Not a scientific study!

Alkaline charger

Great charger. You can recharge Alkaline batteries over and over again saves a small fortune instead of buying new batteries. Would highly recommend this product.

A well designed and cost effective product.

Nicely built device for the money well designed device that holds the batteries in securely. Could pay for itself within days, weeks or a few months depending on your battery use. That it can charge a single battery is also a plus point.Read full review...

Brilliant

I was going to buy a charger and rechargeable batteries but I have a son who is always taking batteries out of toys when they don't need changing . As a result I had loads of half used batteries. This charger had them back to full power in 1 to 2 hours. It says that alkaline batteries can be charged a maximum of ten times but that still saves buying 9 sets of batteries. I would recommend this charger to anyone who goes through alot of batteries. Well worth buying as it pays for itself very quickly.Read full review...
