Nice find, Chris, the 2017 version of this charger tested "very good", and it will handle the larger 26*** and 32*** sizes!

Someone else had shown this before. I guess it is okay, but is limited to 1 amp charging. I still prefer my Opus as it can do much more and has even high charge rates if you want them. It is limited to only four batteries at a time though.

Paul, what, you replaced Cyparagon? I love you man, but it seems you only want to respond lately unless it is to offer a counter opinion or make a remark like this. That said, why not? Just that I can almost count on it.

On top of how good it is, i'm liking the list of battery's it fits.
Where are these odd size battery's sold though???

It looks really nice. I'm worried that it cannot charge 1amp for all 8 slots because the power supply is only 2amp output. You'll probably have to buy an adapter that can output the necessary power. Let us know when you get it and when you do some testing.

I saw this same charger in another thread and after looking over all of its abilities the only thing it has going for it over other chargers is the number of cells it can charge at one time. The Opus can charge all those same size batteries too plus can test them, which this one cannot do. That has been my point all along. The Opus can charge at 2 amps if you want it also. Or at much lower rates too. I'm in favor of any charger that can do more, but so far I haven't seen one at a price point similar to the Opus.

What I like about the eight bay the most is the ability to charge four 32650 batteries at the same time. For me, that's a nice feature, but I'm sure most members here don't use that battery. Regarding the previous post about it, I never saw that post, as most members, we miss some posts, or just don't open them, it was probably right there for me to easily find.

I had not seen the 2 amp charger before, I've been looking for one for a long time and always a zero coming up with one, I will probably buy the Opus too. Thanks

I got a few flashlights that use the 32650 battery. Those are monster batteries XD When the charger comes in let me know if all 8 bays can charge 1amp at once. That's what I'm most interested in at the moment. I like the lcd display too.
