Can't remember how much I paid for mine, but I bought it purely because it has an independent charging circuit for each battery and it has a slow gentle charge option.

Id like one of these as well braindead, its just hard for me to justify the price.
That money would buy me 120 alkaline batts , a few years worth. :punk
Still , it would be great for comparing batts actual usuable capacity.rather than the made up imaginary capacity on the cheaper batts . :banana
Ive got a RadioControl charger that does everything the maha 9000 does, only one batt at a time though - a bit of a pain.

1190726 2011-04-14 01:53:00 I took the plunge and invested in the MH-C9000 charger. It stands head and shoulders above anything else I've ever used to charge NiMH. I love the white LCD data screen - if only all small LCDs were that clear!

Since purchasing the charger, I've come across Yuasa EniTime Plus NiMH 2500mAH batteries. They're similarly priced to the Eneloop brand and are easily available, with good specs.

With time, the slow-discharge battery brands should come down. They're still a bit pricey at around $30 for 4.
