Just had an e-mail from Wendy at sz-eyoung promoting this: http://www.sz-eyoung.cn/product/469406882-210820235/TrustFire_Lithium_battery_fast_charger_10430_10440_14500_16340_17670_18500_18650_.html

Normally I simply delete this sort of thing......but for whatever reason I checked it out.......OK a 4 cell AC/12v DC charger (4x500mA channels). From the photos it doesn't look too awful.....But I'll probably order the Xtar from MF anyway.

(edit) Price $13.69.

Not bad, My tr002 is a great charger.

looks a little like the Soshine SC-S1, even the green packaging.

Certainly seems to be based on the Soshine charger ... Styling ?

500mA over 4 Channels ?

Could be interesting .

I have one here , I havent tested as yet , but hopefully very soon ..

I did charge up two batteries in it so far , both stopped at 4.2v , it does not appear to turn the completed channel off ...

More after I test it .

mmm - could be useful

I'm guessing it charges cells in parallel?

Should be a 4 channel charger ... [ I say should ]

Will open it up shortly to see ...

I was going to buy the Xtar but this charger makes me doubt :) anyone could advice me?

Another question a bit off topic. The xtar has an US plug but i live in europe, would this be a good buy http://www.manafont.com/product_info.php/europlugdiameter-38mm-to-flat-unearthed-socket-converter-p-1239 ?
