Forgive the ignorance, can this be used to charge AmazonBasics AAA 1.2 V 750 mAh niMH or will it fry them?

The issue is charging current, as the charger doesn't sense capacity. If you only charged one AAA, the charge rate would be too high, .75 mA. This is why the instructions specify that at least two AAAs or 10440s be inserted when charging.

Instructions recommend when charging AAA batteries to use slot 1 and 3 (IE: only 2 at a time. Incidentally, this writer just charged 2 batteries of 3: 700-750 Ma AAA batteries.

I see nothing to indicate it would. The unit appears designed to charge standard AA, AAA, C, D (all of which are 1.2v-1.5v) and 9v batteries. Nothing about a 3.6v battery. And so I doubt it. I suppose you could try it, but in my experience using too low a charging voltage will usually not fully charge a battery, and also potentially will shorten it's life.

You can, it will not fry the batteries. It will only charge the batter if it needs charging.

If you get one that works, it might, but that's probably unlikely. Notice this device has fifteen 1-star reviews, one 2-star, and only four positive reviews. I wouldn't trust anything expensive to it. These things are horribly made. If you're going to charge expensive gear, I recommend using something that gives you a constant voltage, like a battery pack.

It will work but you would be overloading it in the start mode...it would be fine for charging. You probably have a 250 amp solenoid. This is an 80 amp.

I wouldn't recommend doing that. If you want a higher amp single battery charger, they make a 15amp one.

Yes, I have used this charger to charge two AAA Panasonic 800mAh batteries without problem.

I don't know the device you're asking about. However, the USB port on my lantern is marked '1.5 A', which I take to mean that it can handle a load up to that value. So I would surmise that a 1 amp device could be charged.

I don't think that will work. I charge the batteries with a standard outlet. Hope that helps.

Yes, it will charge any AA or AAA sized NiMH or NiCad rechargeable battery.

Umm, I don't know. Mine has a place in the container for an AAA battery and it recharges by draining that battery. It takes over night at first but after that it's less. On the side of the container is a plugin port for the A/C charger but I've never tried it so I don't know. It gives the voltage (3) and amperage (100ma) so any charger with that exact output will work even used from goodwill. Beware if the ma or milliamps is not shown as if it's higher it could burn up your unit. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Use any USB power adapter... either ac or automotive. RE: >> Cheap Generic << Even low cost "generic" devices today will get the USB voltage within USB specs and will be safe to use. Only the voltage matters... the amp/ma ratings simply show the chargers amp capability... if the USB device needs less current, the current flow will be less. I have used a wide variety of chargers, including 2.1 amp chargers, to charge my M55 for the past year.

I don't see why not. This is just a normal USB Charger not unlike a cell phone or little Apple cube charger. They all list the power output of them and I believe this one was 5v 1amp for each of the ports. Where this doesn't do well is charging like a large tablet or power brick that requires 2.4amps.

I don't know what kind of voltage it uses, but I have charged my Ebook, apple mp, and my android phone w/these, works for me

Hello. Yes, I believe You can use your Duracell Charger to charge your Amazon Basic batteries. I currently use this (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XSA5WW/ref=wms_ohs_product) Duracell charger and it works flawlessly with Amazon Basic batteries. I have tried Energizer batteries with my charger which didn't work, the charger couldn't detect the battery.

The specs on this device calls for 5V 1.5A power input. As long as the supply you have is also 5V, you can use anything capable of producing at LEAST 1.5A. Charging with a supply greater than 1.5A capacity will not hurt your device. I hope this answers your question. For an analogy, think about car batteries... More Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) will not hurt your car's starter motor. It's more capacity that may never get used.

I have only attempted to charge net books and tablets. However, this unit has a ton of juice. It has markings for 16v and -19v. I would assume it will work fine.
