Not to thread crap but it looks like the same charger at Walmart. I just bought one for $16.80 and comes with 4 rechargeble AAs. Additional set of 4 AAs is $6.27.00. You do the math. First of all, it's a good charger. Anyway, if you don't like it, it's no problem returning it to Walmart. Secondly, you don't have to buy all 16 batteries. And best of all, no waiting for the package to arrive.

i bought one of those same chargers u r talking about from walmart on friday. i think this deal is better becuz those 1800mah nimh batteries are not cheap... especially if u buy them from walmart.

There's another link for battery sales from this company. From what I can tell all are happy with the purchase. I have bought from them three times.

For the Walmart deal ? - SKU ?, Where in the store were they located ? ( I could find this on the rack with other brands of rechargeable stuff at the Walmart location near me ).

I ordered from them and only received about 3/4 of my order. I emailed, called, and posted to their support forum, but got no response about my missing batteries. A complaint to Paypal did no good - they gave Paypal a UPS tracking number for the part of my order I _did_ receive, but never responded about the missing parts of my order. Paypal said, "Well, they've got a tracking number - you must have gotten everything you ordered!" so I'm SOL.

Until recently, their support forums, particularly their Shipping and RMA forums, were filled with complaints about missing and incomplete shipments. They've since deleted most of the complaints, but still haven't responded about my missing batteries.

i know this might not be much help, but i got the walmart one for my sister as well. i cant remember the brand, but it came with 4 1800mah batteries and was $15. officemax sells the same one for $30, i know its the same cause i had just got it at officemax and was shocked to see it at half price so i bought it and made sure they were identical and then returned the other to officemax.
anyway, both the walmart and officemax model are identical to the batterspace.com model. i own that one as well. they come in different boxes and have different brands of batteries, but the actual chargers are identical.

I ordered this package a month ago and these batteries work great! I just used 2 of them in my 3MP digital camera and got 140 pictures (some with, some without flash) taken before they started getting low. Duracells would always crap out on me after 20-30 pictures before. These are great!!

Just a word of warning, though, this charger gets kinda hot when it's charging the batteries. Nothing to be too concerned with but it was something I noticed. I mean, hell, even if it fries my batteries after 20 recharges, it's still a damn good deal!!
