 Low cost universal backup charger for Nikon EN-EL3e batteriesFeb 13, 2009
By MikeCG
"MikeCG"
I bought this as a low cost backup charger for my D90's EN-EL3e batteries. I like to have a spare charger when traveling, so if I lose an only charger (and I have been known to leave one or two in hotel rooms), I'm out of business until I can find a new one. Also, this one is 90-260 volt and comes with a European plug adapter plus an auto "cigar lighter" power plug, so it works just about anywhere. And it works fine.
My only question mark is this:
The specs on the charger label say exactly as follows:
Input:
AC 90-260V (50/60 Hz);
DC 12V-15V.
(I know what those numbers mean: it works in the U.S and most parts of the civilized world, and in most automobiles with power takeoffs.)
Output:
4.2V===450mA [The === symbols are exactly as on the spec label.]
8.4V===450mA
(I haven't the slightest idea what those numbers are supposed to mean.)
When does it put out 4.2V and when does it put out 8.4V? Hard to believe those numbers are paired with the input numbers. And it doesn't make sense (to me) that the 450mA is the same for both 4.2 and 8.4V outputs.
There is no instruction manual even though the label on the charger says ""Carefully read user manual before use."
As I said, the charger seems to work as advertised, and it operates in most electrical environments and with the specific battery for which it was purchased, so perhaps it doesn't matter what the output and input specs are, but it would be nice if they made sense.

worksApr 30, 2009
By Venky
Does its job - no problems at all. Very compact.
I travel internationally so needed a compact universal voltage charger unlike the one I got from Nikon with my D90 - shame on you Nikon.
Strangely it has problems with one of my EN-EL3 batteries - as if the contacts are loose ... if I keep the charger horizontal then no problems. But that happens with only one of my two EL3's so probably an issue with the battery ...

I carry a spare charged battery and charger. It works fine and charged my battery as quickly as the Nikon charger does.

Works but had a little trouble initially.Jan 22, 2011
By book99758
Tried it out initially and the battery (ENEL3E) was not being charged. Status light was always green showing the battery was fully charged even when the depleted battery was initially inserted. Two days later I finally figured out the battery was not inserted properly. Because the charger was designed for multiple types of battery there are two different sets of tabs on the unit. You need to select the correct one and also push down harder and ensure it clicks into place properly. It was tight and apparently I did not push it down enough so the battery contacts were not touching the charging points. I realized this when I tried just touching the battery contacts to the charging points and the status light changed to red indicating charging was taking place. For those of you that reported the charger did not work, try it again. I think you're having the same issues I had with the inserting of the battery correctly.
Update: Tested charger with the ENEL3 and ENEL3A batteries and they all fit and will charge. Same issue in tightness of fit of battery but once you figure it out, the rest are easy. Can't beat this for the money and eliminates the inconvience of needing to plug in the long cord everytime with the Nikon MH18 charger.

Charges like a charmAug 07, 2009
By K. Nash
The chargers does the job. It is a no frills looking charger. So far, I've had no problems. It is definitely much cheaper than a Nikon branded charger, and it does the job just as well. Save your money and get this, unless you just have the Nikon charger :)
