Recommend me a battery charger and batteries

Looking for recommendations on a charger and batteries for D size battery cells.

These are for a baby rocker swing so I need to charge 4 D Size batteries at a time.

Depends how much your looking to spend as prices can really vary.

The Duracell Rechargeable CEF22 Multi-Battery Charger is good if you need to charge D size or you could get high mAh AA batteries, say 2700mAh and use a set of Uniross AA to D battery CONVERTERS.

Well I've just bought 12 Duracell normal batteries and they cost £20 so am prepared to spend a good amount for a good product.

I have these and they're very good, i'm currently using the multi usage ones (have 8 x AA and 4 x AAA) using the uniross smart charger.

Also check out the reviews of them, very high.

I'm also interested in this I've read good reports for the Technoline charger BL-700 just wondered if after chrimbo if anyone else is currently in the hunt for a good charger and batteries as the energiser and duracell chargers are very poor. Over volting (hot batteries) and poor lifespan.

Great charger the Uniross smart charger.

And the Hybrio AA batteries which came with the charger seem a lot better than the Duracell rechargeable I have.

Only complaint, is the Hybrio are only 2100 mAh, compared to my other batteries being 2700 mAh versions.

EDIT: As anyone used the Samsung Digimax Rechargeables 2850 mAh AA , looking for some feedback on them.

I got the BL-700 For Christmas

I bought 4x 2900Mah AA Batterys and 8x 1100 Mah AAA Batterys, all from VapexTech (on ebay) they seem to get good reviews.

Eneloop batterys are good aswell! But they don't hold as much as the VapexTechs.

I would recommend a Technoline BL-700 and some eneloop batteries (or Uniross HYBRIO).

Got mine from Battery Logic.
