Almost went for it... I decided when my other 12309120398 chargers fail me I'll get this one.
Well your other 12309120398 chargers probally suck and probally will never fail.
this is a great charger, offers several charging rates, a dis-charge function (discharge and then full charge) which then displays the actual capacity of the battery(ies). Also has a refresh function that will charge/dis charge cycle that MAY bring worn batteries to life again
What a bargain! This is the best charger ever.
I have this and it is very good.
Here is a good reference site for rechargable batteries and chargers:

Nice charger. only issue for me is to have the manual handy as to what the buttons will and can do when the batteries are inserted.
doesn't discovercard still offer the 5% discount for amazon purchases. might went to keep that in mind if you are getting it.
Another bonus is it's a v33 version, apparently the older v32 tended to overheat. If you sort the amazon reviews by date you'll see this in the most recent comment
this is a good charger. the only reason you'd need anything different is if you wanted to charge 8 batteries at once. the included batteries are ho hum - 2000 mAh, one of which went dead in less than a year.
SWEET...just checked my gold box and this baby was in there for $2 cheaper. haha.
Charger works well. recommended.
If this charger is actually of the latest hardware version then it comes with 2400mAh batteries instead of the older 2000mAh batteries. It has also gotten rid of the overheating problem!
I have three of the bc-900 chargers and they have been working very well for over a year with varying battery types! If you need a charger this is the one to get!
