Deal?? Maha MH-C9000 Advanced Battery Charger AA/AAA $49.97

They don’t ship it to the EU?? No eu countries appear on the shipping list, not even Netherlands. Very strange not shipping locally, maybe it’s because it’s not CE approved? Or is it an error on my browser?
Did someone try it yet?
EDIT:
OK, i found he problem, you linked ru.nkon.nl. they have also EU.nkon.nl, but the prices are a bit higher

I might have to get one… my nitecore intellicharge i4 v2 just charged 4 of my NiMHs to 1.36v…
At least I only have 1 AA light left which I hardly ever use, that softens the blow.

The guy I called at Thomas Distributing said it has a 3 year warranty on it.

@alfreddajero You’re part of the reason I bought this charger! See what you did! :wink:

@DBCstm Thanks for your tips! I’ll be studying the manual. Have already done some reading on it.

ezarc: I should have asked you first! You’re the deal finder fo sho!! Well, it turns out they have a store in Phoenix, AZ. It’s on the other side of town from me & about 30 miles away. BUT, good to know I can go get one there if I ever needed. The other things would be local tax I think about 9% or so & 2-3 gallons of gas @ $3.43 a gallon back & forth. Then again, I wouldn’t have to wait till next week for it.

@kreisler I’d love to see a VP1 4 bay with possibly a few more features like the MH-C9000 has. I’m also looking at the SkyRC if the price comes down a bit. Maybe a VP1 4 bay with all the features of the SkyRC? w00t!

@brad I was able to add it to my cart just fine using Firefox 22.0

If you’re genuine about all this then I am grateful. Thanks kreisl.

And will it be cheaper than the maha 9000? If so, I’ll patiently wait for it

fabulous, versatile charger. One thing to point out is that Maha Energy’s customer service is very good- I had one from Amazon that wasn’t performing right, and Eric from Maha swapped it for me for a new one no questions asked, he even paid the shipping.

I have 3 i4s in addition to my 2 C9000s……they are also great chargers……using them more every day. Only issue is they don’t fit 26650 without using a coin as spacer- so I picked up 2 Trustfire TR-006, so far they’re working fine.

That’s another reason I chose this charger was for the service after the sale. I have read about some not so good stories about this charger as well. Just like anything else I guess. There’s always gonna be some that aren’t 100%.

Care to share a bit more upon specifics ?
No doubt multiple folks here have ideas’ and or desires that they hope would be integrated :slight_smile:

Nah, not interested in expulsion, just rather you get it right the first time, so we don’t have to wait another 6 months after sending you back to the drawing board :slight_smile:
BTW, I do appreciate why you’re unable to provide specifics such as the technology you plan to integrate features, was more a desire to see what features you’re contemplating thus far and are you open to suggestions from us prospective users :slight_smile:

I like my Maha C9000, its been a reliable performer for years now. And I prefer to balance charge the Li-Ions I use in bigger lights with an RC charger. But I wanted something decent for single cells.

Now, I don’t trust promises about products that don’t exist yet, especially when the proponent is slamming competing products and suggesting I don’t buy them. Also, many promised products never happen - just look at Apple.

So I ordered an Xtar VP1, mostly because of the favourable review HKJ gave it. And I also really liked the choice of .25, .5 and 1.0A charge rates.

@photon1k Getting a bit off topic but I plan on also getting a SkyRC or something like it, 1-2 VP1 and 1-2 Nitecore i4. A hobby charger would be nice but they look like they would take a bit more work than I have time for atm.

Are you censoring your memory now too?

Reads like a slam to me. See post #16 above.

And the suggestion not to buy. See post #17 above.

Based on reviews the VP1 seems like a nice charger. The Nitecore didn’t review as well (see the review), but the v2 edition did show some improvement.

Hobby chargers are a trade-off. You give up a little ease of use for a lot of flexibility and power. If you don’t have multi-cell lights, or you don’t want to balance or parallel charge them their cells, then you may be happier with just a couple VP1s.

I did manage to find a XTAR VP1 Li-ion Battery Charger for $35.99 in the US w/free shipping but they’re out of stock atm :frowning:

Unfair that you couldn’t delete them quickly enough to avoid being quoted, or just unfair that you were caught?

+ 1

XTAR cannot enforce map on products which are too expensive for what they are. 20% price drop:

This ebay seller accepted my offer of 27.00 GBP which is about $42.00. That includes shipping.

+1 :slight_smile:

That (temporary?) 20% drop may be tied to XTAR “7th anniversary celebration ” rebate across their whole products range (save batteries)…good only till 31-AUG-2013…hurry up… :slight_smile:
