Any feedback? Reviews seem encouraging, not only for this model but also for other chargers under this brand. It seems to do just what I'm looking for and the price is right. It only charges up to 500mA, but that's okay with me assuming it's still good on the cells. I won't need quick charging. I've read a post by HJK that 1.0A would be proper.
