Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony BCG-34HRMF4 Battery Charger with LCD Display and 4 AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries
Customer Review: It just works!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have used them for about two-three months now on my Xbox 360, Wii (and recently, Wii Fit), and Canon Camera and have to say it has worked like a charm. The batteries don't last longer than 'normal' ones would, but they last about the same... the best part? Just recharge them!
What convinced me was after doing so much research I learned there are different battery levels, and the ones included with this charger are the '2500' ones which make it last longer. Also, these batteries hold the charge for a few months, even if you don't use them at all, that is awesome. Right now the best ones (to my knowledge) are 2700 batteries, which would include Sanyo's Eneloop (available at Costco... I'll talk about that later).
Something else to keep in mind,
I was real bummed when my digital camera only took a couple of sets of pictures before dying on me... after researching to see if it was my camera or my new Sony batteries, I came to realize that the first 3-4 times you use the batteries... they don't FULLY charge. So give it some time before you peak out your batteries which would be around the 5th full charge.
Once peaked, check to see how long they typically last with normal use on the device you are using it with. Let's say they last 5 hours with your device... once you start notice a decrease to perhaps 4 hours, it's time to press the magic refresh button on the charger, and 'renew' your batteries for one more go! (Open the cover to see the white button).
In summary, I can't really complain... I've been using them on my battery hungry controllers for the 360 and Wii and have done a great job so far. I purchased 2 extra sets of batteries from eBay (cheaper) bringing my total number of Sony batteries to 12 allowing me to power 2 Xbox remotes, 2 Wii remotes, and my Wii Fit board (takes 4 batteries, yikes!).
PS: Another great alternative would be the bundle pack sold by Costco branded as Eneloop, which are Sanyo batteries.
They come with adapters to use for other devices (C, AAA, etc)
They are FULLY CHARGED right out of the box, just go home and put them in!
I am still happy with my purchase, for the simple fact that it has a orange LCD screen that shows the battery status from far away. Once charged, the screen turns off, letting you know they are ready!
