SYSMAX Intellicharge i2 Li-Ion Ni-Cd Ni-MH 2-Channel Smart Battery Charger

Is this a good charger for my batteries? I have some 16340's, 10440's and planning on getting an 18350 or two. Need to know if this will charge them all without exploding them or something lol...

That's the preferred charger of the modern on the go laserist

I just got an i4 and I love it.

Damn dj. Really went in and diagnosed that very well. That's something I'd do nsteadof iPod immediately sending it back . I'm way to impatient. Good to know they are as good as everyone says

I bought the 4 slotted one and have been very happy with it. Charges both Li's and Ni batteries well. One thing to note though, the directions do say to not charge a single 10440 by itself because of too much current.

26650s fit a little funny, but still fit. Other than that, no complaints.

Only 2 at a time due to size on those cells.

Here's a very detailed analysis of the i2 charger:
Review of Charger SysMax i2

TL;DR - It's a great charger, but not perfect.

I would say do not charge 10440s even by pairs if you're using those ****fire batteries. I had those and charged them at about 250mA (usb based charger) but after a few cycles, wouldn't stop charging and the battery would heat up. I fear it might explode if left alone.
