I needed to charge an old BP-5M battery and was scared that it wouldn't fit, but it works perfectly! the adjustable parts were easy to figure out, and while It may be a little slow to charge that was kinda expected for the price. Overall pretty happy, and a good affordable option. The display turns on when you put the battery in, and before you even plug it into the wall which was surprising but also really helpful for just checking how much battery you have left while on the go.

Exactly as described here. Works fine. Very limited directions, but fairly easy to figure out. The contacts slide a little too easily, I think, but not really an issue. Just study everything and fairly clear how it all works. But better instructions would be nice. Also microscopic print, so there's that. All that aside, it works! And very nicely. The illuminated display panel is a nice touch, especially for an item priced so low. I am using it to charge numerous BL-5C batteries and it fully charges one from scratch in a few hours. Nice flip out plug, too. For the low price, this was a pleasant surprise and better than expected. Yay! Update: Note that you can also use this device to check the level of charge in batteries as well. The display will tell you when you insert the battery the charge level in 25% increments (25, 50, 75, 100). Can be useful from time to time, Read more
Works great. I was easily able to charge my oddball camera batteries that have a lost one charger. Worked great! Lucky to think of and find this type unit. Read more
It works well and has a usb port so you can simultaneously charge a battery and another electronic. It takes several hours for a full charge and the led display is very bright and shows the charging status. I'm satisfied with this purchase. I want to mention though if you have any issues with your eyesight/hands in handling small objects, I would not reccomend this one as the tiny metal tabs have to line up perfectly with your batteries terminals or it won't charge, it will show 100% on the display, but the battery will not charge unless those little metal points meet exactly. Also you have to be gentle or you can pop those little tabs completely off the sliding track fairly easily. I found it easier to place the battery 1/2 way in the slinding holder part first, about an inch or so above the metal tabs so I could better align the terminals. Then when they're in the right place just slide the battery down the rest of the way. You may have to do this from time to time because they will sometime shift out of place or if you have different batteries to charge. Read more
I bought this assuming it was a universal charger for my various camera batteries. Unfortunately, the printed output on the box and on the charger itself is only 4.2V. I tried to charge my 3.7V batteries and it didn't charge at all other than displaying the percentage charge for my battery. Either this charger was defective or it was not designed to charge at those voltages. Price was very cheap for me to return. Read more
Product was as described and works great. Read more
I needed to get a charger for my work radio that uses a BT90 battery. The catch was that I didn't want to spend $50 for one so I thought I'd search around for a universal type charger to charge the spare batteries that I had. I came across this one feeling safe in the knowledge that it wouldn't last very long. Maybe a couple months but I at least had to try. Fourteen months later and it still works perfectly. It took just a touch of online research to find which was the positive and negative contacts on the battery and the rest was easy. I don't remember anything about the instructions so I can't attest to them the operation has been simple. If this one ever goes out I absolutely plan on buying another. Read more
I have 2 of these. Purchased within days of one another. One consistently reads 25% less than the other...Take one of several fully charged batteries: One reads %100 on one charger. The same battery in the other charger reads %75. I think a 25% variance is significant, but I not very familiar with these batteries, chargers, and their accuracy or life spans....🤔 Read more
