5 Stars Ok Battery Charger
This Battery Charger is OK for the specific battery that it is made for. However, there are other battery chargers that re-charge numerous types of batteries(e.g. Quantaray Battery Charger from Ritz Camera).

3 Stars Questionable quality
I broke my original Nikon charger by dropping it about five feet onto a concrete sidewalk. No visible damage, but it would not work after that. No complaints at this point and I ordered a new one. It arrived and worked fine for a week or two. Then it began to exhibit comnnection problems. Found the contacts where the battery met the charger were weak. Finally bought a Torx screwdriver and opened the cover. The contacts were fastened to the housing with a small spot of glue that pulled away from the housing. I reglued it but was sure it will not hold. Filled the mostly empty part of the housing with foam rubber and reassembled. Works fine now with the foam rubber holding the contacts in the proper position, but you should not have to redesign a new charger.

4 Stars Very Quick
The battery charger does what it is supposed to do! It is relatively quick and compact. If you have more than one camera bag (like me) get one for each and you will NEVER be caught out of town without it!!!

5 Stars Nikon Battery Charger
Purchased as a spare, in addition to the one which came with the camera, to keep in my bag at all times. Prompt service. Good product.

5 Stars Works Great
This charger works great. Just the same as the charger its replacing. It takes about an hour to charge the batteries for my D200, which is plenty fast enough.
