Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries

NiMH batteries have up to twice the power of Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable batteries, can be recharged or topped off anytime, and don’t have the memory effect. Their only drawback is all NiMH self discharge about half their energy in two months without use. They are best used in devices that use up batteries quickly, like digital cameras, portable entertainment devices and flashlights in constant use.

They can be recharged about 500 times and last for years. Unlike Nickel-Cadmium batteries,

Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries do not contain toxic substances.

QuickCharger

The QuickCharger sets a new standard in battery charger’s for today’s ultra-high capacity NiMH and NiCad batteries. Ordinary charger’s aren’t able to charge NiMH and NiCads to their full capacity, and often generate heat while charging that shortens the life of the battery.

The QuickCharger’s sophisticated internal computer charges your batteries quickly without overheating. NiCad batteries can be automatically discharged prior to charging to improve capacity and life. The computer also uses a trickle charge on fully charged batteries so the batteries can sit in the charger until you need them.

It can recharge up to four D, C, AA, AAA batteries, analyze batteries for their charge and capacity, and rejects damaged batteries. Negative pulse charging and Intelligent Discharge System (IDS) prevents memory effect and overcharging. Soft Start function prevents overheating of battery, helping extend battery life. The QuickCharger can fully charge 2 AA Nickel Metal Hydride batteries in about 2-1/2 hours.

This charger is powered by 120 VAC through a wall transformer (included) with a 12VDC output and can easily be adapted to operate from 12VDC.

One to four AAA, AA, C, D and two 9V batteries can be charged in any combination of sizes  and battery chemistry at the same time.

The AccuManager20 automatically recognizes each battery type and charges them separately.

Soltronix™ Solar Headphone Radio

The Soltronix™ Headphone Radio is a solar recharging AM/FM headphone radio with superb sound. The solar module allows it to operate on just solar power in as little as thirty percent of full sunlight.

Additional power generated goes to charging the battery while the headphones are still operating! When the headphones are off all power generated by the module goes to charging the included NiMH battery.

One hour of charging in bright sunlight in a windowsill gives 1-2 hours of playtime, and a fully charged battery provides over 18 hours of playtime.

The user benefits both from the savings and convenience of not having to change batteries.
