Customer Review: Operational nightmare
Summary: 1 Stars
I'm going to say the same thing that other's have said, but... MAJOR EMPHASIS ON THE NEGATIVE...
Operating this thing is a pure NIGHTMARE. Unless you LOVE charging batteries for a living, I can't imagine using this thing. Any simple task on this charger requires the user to pull up a chair, and literally sit there and press buttons for 10 minutes straight. I have not seen a higher maintainance charger in my life. If only the default setting was any good. But it's 1000ma, which is equivalent to what cheapo chargers use; and considering that the main reason to buy this thing is to charge at a slower rate (to save your precious batteries), it's a hassle... EVERY SINGLE TIME... If only it would remember the settings - NO IT DOESN'T.
Yes, it's adjustable to your hearts content, yes it's powerful... but it is SO UNBELIEVABLY UNUSER UNFRIENDLY, that I'd rather just throw batteries away then having to deal with charging them in this monstrosity.
I returned this thing to a local store after the 2nd time charging batteries, realizing what a pain in the ass you have to go through EVERY TIME you simply want to charge your batteries. You must be some BATTERY MEGA-DORK to actually enjoy this (and even then, the default settings don't match the recommended charging rate, so if you like memorizing 40 keystroke commands to execute every time you want to charge batteries)...
If when you were little when asked "who do you want to be when you grow up?", and you answered "I'd like to charge batteries", then this charger is for you.
Just use the cheapo charger from Sanyo or Panasonic, etc... or if you really want the "power" get the La Crosse BC-900 (which I had to buy after having the "pleasure" with this piece of poop).
I'm offended that the engineering, the marketing, r&d of Maha powerex have gone through this design and actually pushed it out the door. It's like they did it just to irritate every single user.
Description of Maha Powerex MH-C9000 WizardOne Charger-Analyzer
MH-C9000 WizardOne Battery Charger & Analyzer is suitable for the casual consumer users, enthusiast and professionals, WizardOne is capable of charging, conditioning, analyzing, cycling, forming and discharging one to four AA or AAA batteries, all while digitally displaying the battery capacity and voltage. All four slots can be operated independently in different modes and settings. Those seeing the unit for the first time will be struck by its large LCD screen, backlit by ultra-bright white LEDs. Measuring over 3.5 by 1.5, the display is more than three times larger than its closest competition and shows a wealth of information that is easy to read. In addition to the standard charging, conditioning and discharging, the WizardOne charger-analyzer also offers two unusual operations modes. The Break-In mode allows the user to input the capacity of the battery and performs a forming charge designed to properly break-in new batteries. The Cycle mode allows user to charge and discharge batteries consecutively while storing the capacity for up to 15 cycles. There are ten selectable charging and discharging current from 0.2A to 2.0A and 0.1A to 1.0A respectively. The charger also features four independent temperature sensors using Mahas latest temperature rise detection algorithm in addition to the usual peak temperature detection. It also armed with additional patented termination algorithms found in other Maha chargers. The unit can be operated in a basic and advanced mode. In the basic mode, user merely needs to insert the batteries with no further key press. The charger will select the appropriate settings automatically, making it suitable for the casual users.Digital Cameras & Photo Categories
