LaCrosse BC-700 charger clones

Batteries and Chargers Chargers

Hi- I have been participating in another thread (specific do Eneloop batteries) and it was brought up that there are clones of the LaCrosse BC-700 charger.

I am interested in learning more about these, if anybody can help. I did find the Technoline BC-700 in the UK, but nothing else came up on Google, Amazon, E-bay, or the several websites I checked that typically have things like that (DinoDirect, DealExtreme, and Manafont.)

Or, if there were other chargers with equivalent features and quality, but less than the original, I would be interested.

Thanks!

Bob

Perhaps this one:

The staple shops in china and HK doesen't bother getting better chargers such as these. At 22GBP aint expensive at all. I paid for mine around 40€ without delivery.

I'm sure www.component-shop.co.uk used to sell it but I only see the 900 now.

I own the technoline BC-700 it is my main AA/AAA charger... here is the German Amazon site... I got mine bundled with some eneloops so I essentially paid like 15 € for it. Product description here. Manual here.

and then you have the original LaCrosse.

these are the clones in Germany alone. i am sure that there are more clones in other countries (and maybe i am wrong haha).

I'm having a heck of a time finding clones in the USA. Are these clones generally found overseas?

voltcraft is the brand (it's not a company!) of conrad.de

Techno Line sounds like a stupid cheap name, so it must be German noname stuff.

akkucell is definitely german : http://accucell.de/

i've seen them on ebay too.

UK version for relatively cheap(or here) may or may not need adapter.

US Amazon original

I think I might just go with this Titanium Innovations charger from Battery Junction at $27.95 + shipping since it's still cheaper than the BC-700 for me here in the USA and it has 8 bays.
