Sony BCG-34HRMF4 Battery Charger Review
The charger seems to charge the batteries as it is supposed to. It takes about 8 hours to fully charge four batteries. Once charged, the batteries work OK if used within a couple of days, although I thought I would get more pictures per charge than I do. The real problem is that after about 5 days after charging the battery, they are essentially dead. They will not even turn on the camera. It doesn’t matter if they are stored in the camera or not. The voltage measured at that point is about 1.1 volts. I have had the unit about two months and this has been a problem from day one. I even tried a full discharge through the charger, but that made no difference. I don’t know if I have defective batteries (all four) or if the charger is not providing a full charge even though the indicator shows it to be fully charged. expected better from Sony than this.
I’m using these batteries for my Xbox 360 controllers and they work great. Charge up overnight and they last for about 3 weeks or longer. My electric razor has lasted for over a month without a recharge of the batteries. It simply does as advertised. Fair price/works great. I liked it so much I had to buy another 4 pack of batteries for it (comes with 4). Give it about 7 hours to charge. I pop the batteries in over night and it cuts off automatically after they are charged. Charges AA & AAA. LED indicator is a nice touch.
The refresh function is very helpful. And if you not in a hurry, just let the batteries in the charger, they will not be over-charge. No hot battery, and you can charge one/two/three or four batteries at the same time as you wish. The Sony batteries in the package is also in good quality, and super powerful.
Love this charger! You can charge individual batteries, in case you have something that requires 3 or 1 which is really useful. I charges fairly quickly but do not expect it to be 10 minutes, but I have no rush since the SONY batteries last so long. I have a Nikon Coolpix P50 and I took and reviewed almost 1000 photos and a video with a single pair of batteries and only use the second one when I needed to copy the photos to the computer. The feature of that display with the exact charge of each battery is wonderful, used it even to measure some already charged batteries.
So far I am very pleased with this product. I use AA batteries in my sb600 flash for wedding and other portraiture and the batteries stayed juiced up and ready to go instantly for the duration of the wedding. I wish I had thought of doing this sooner, it would have saved me a lot of money and stress keeping full batteries in my speed light. The unit is small and light and has universal voltage which was a big selling point for me as I see travel in my future. The automatic shut off is nice too so you can juice up over night while sleeping and be ready to go the next day. My only wish is that it would accommodate 9 volt batteries but I guess you have to pay a higher price for something like that…..Overall very pleased.
