100-240v Worldwide-Use Home & Car Rapid Battery Charger w/ AA & AAA Rechargeable Batteries $14.99

This one is a terrific deal for anyone who travels with battery-operated devices. That's travel by car or travel overseas. Buy.com is selling the Digital Concepts 100-240v Worldwide use Home & Car Rapid Battery Charger w/ AA & AAA Rechargeable Batteries for just $14.99, including free budget shipping.

It retails for $49.99 so your savings are 70% off.

I've bought rechargeable batteries on their own, and have paid about $10 for a four-pack (in either size), so just by the estimated cost of $20 for those you're already saving just on the cost of the batteries. But this deal includes a battery charger with extreme versatility. Most chargers are meant for use at home in the U.S., meaning they're good only for AC current, 100-120V. So if you're overseas where the current may be 220v you can't use it -- meaning buying expensive one-time use batteries overseas. Also, you can't use most battery chargers in the car where DC power is available, so if you're on a long trip and the batteries wear down, you either do without or stop at a service area to buy some expensive batteries.

Well, this charger lets you avoid those scenarios so you can have your batteries charged up wherever you travel -- and of course, you can use it at home too for normal charging needs.

This charger features:
- charges either AA or AAA batteries in about 2 hours
- charges 2 or 4 batteries at once
- easy-select 2 or 4 battery toggle switch
- 100 or 240 VAC wall outlet
- built in switching adjusts the AC input voltage automatically (adapter req'd)
- charge in an outlet at home, or use charger while in your car
- retractable spade type AC plug for easier storage
- charges up to 1000 times
- red Charging light and green Ready lights indicate charging status
- subsequent partial charges will not reduce the batteries' capacity
- batteries last up to 4 times longer than standard alkaline batteries
- includes 4 AA high capacity 2300 mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries
- includes 4 AAA high capacity 900 mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries

This will really save a ton of money on batteries over the years, especially when you're traveling and less apt to find bargains when you need to buy regular batteries. I think this will be a handy addition to anyone's travel kit. Check it out by clicking the picture below.
