Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 156 reviews.
Great for easy charge and check of salvage batts
I rate the batteries as five star. I don't know about the charger, since it was a gift, but you have better chargers, which I may order later on. Your service was excellent. Thank you.
Great product!
The Samsung batteries I ordered arrived quickly and were in great condition when I installed all 4 into a solar Meshtastic node and its been on my roof for a few days now and the batteries work great. I know where I am buying my next nodes batteries from. Thank you.
Very good
The charger is ideal for future use with my batteries.
Boobies
It was exactly as I had hoped.
Works great - the charger and the battery. Prompt service. Reasonable price. Thanks!
Works well. Only downside is that there is no way to tell how much battery charge you have left to go. The light goes green when fully charged and red for "not fully charged". For the price though it was a good purchase.
Works great
Charger works great. Set and forget.
good
Charger works as advertised. Would purchase again.
Charger is compact and easy to use. Hope it does well and holds up in the long term.
The device works as expected. It works with the batteries I ordered and as a perfect replacement for replacement batteries, it just works.
Received my order quickly.
Easy smallest charger that holds all sizes of LiON cells.
Charges wonderfully. Compact and easy to move around.
Works great, lost my first one and if I need another I'll buy it here
Works perfectly. My vape quit charging my battery so I needed something that would. I’m so glad I found it
Good products. Fast delivery. Thank you.
good product great savings!
This is a compact usb charger. There are no settings, just plug it in and charge.
Works great and easy to use
Good as always...
The chargers I ordered came in brand new and in excellent packaging. I unfortunately ordered different chargers than what I wanted but that's my own fault. I wanted 2-bay chargers and I ordered single bay chargers 🤦🏻♂️. Craziness. 18650 battery did exactly as they were supposed to though and ship out exactly what someone orders. Thank you for getting my order to me so quickly!!
Product works exactly as described. Shipped quickly. No problems so far.
a
Arrived on time and in nice condition 🤙✌
Excellent service and communication. Price even including shipment was very competitive. Highly recommended.
Inexpensive and works great.
I have had 2 items for a few years that I have not been able to recharge. They came with rechargeable batteries and no way to recharge them. Now The problem is solved.
Good cheap charger works fine easy to use
Many times better than the OEM charger I received with my flashlight. Great value.
Good for one battery for the FREE flashlight they tossed into the box of my last order. The battery and charger are great, The free flash lite works, and that’s all i can say about the flashlight, but then I bought a charger and one battery!
This is a very nice battery charger! I would have preferred a double battery charger, but this one is nice, too.
It works much better than the one I'd gotten rid of via dropping it off at Staples.
It charges the cells well. I will be testing its durability and portability in a couple of weeks.
