Smart travel charger with USB

The Carrera V3299USB charges two or four AA or AAA NiMH batteries at a time and includes a built-in USB output port for handheld devices. It accepts worldwide AC input from 100 to 240 volts and has a flip-out plug for compact storage.

Sustained charging behaviour

Smart charging circuitry stops the charge when batteries are full and uses temperature sensors to prevent overheating. Red LEDs show quick charge, flash for bad cells and turn off when charging is complete, while a green LED signals the USB port is active.

Build and daily use

The unit is ETL listed and features reverse polarity protection for safe insertion. The USB socket delivers 5 volts at 500 milliamps but works only when the charger is plugged in and no batteries are charging. Eight AccuPower AA cells at 2900 mAh and 1.2 volts are included.
