Powerex MH-C980 Turbo Charger-Analyzer
Key Features
  • Charges 8x AA or AAA NiMH Batteries
  • 8 Independent Charging Circuits
  • 2 Hour Charging in Default Mode
  • 1 Hour Charging in Turbo Mode
This Turbo Charger-Analyzer from Powerex is an eight-bay charger with separate charging circuits. You can charge AA or AAA NiMH batteries independently or at the same time. Inserting the batteries automatically sets the charger into a default charging mode, charging the cells within two hours, but it can also be set to a Turbo Mode which will charge the batteries within one hour. With a touch of the button, the charger analyzes the battery health and accurately displays capacity on the large backlit LCD display. During the charging process the Thermal Management System prevents the batteries from overheating. If you have older batteries, they can be revived with the charger's Deep Battery Conditioning System.

I just received this charger, and was conditioning some old 2100mA Rayovac rechargeables. When I checked on them, I was shocked to see two of them charged to 3886 mA and still increasing. I immediately unplugged the unit and removed the batteries. One is bubbly looking like it's about to explode. Is my charger defective, or did I do something wrong?
Asked by: Leanne
I had two of these chargers do this to me while conditioning the batteries. I contacted the manufacturer. They had me send photos by email. Then the manufacturer requested I return the units to them. They replaced both units with newer units that now have fans. However, I’ve never taken the chance again with conditioning batteries. I now just replace batteries. It was so scary.
