Charger and 16 AA NiMH batteries

The Powerex C980 smart charger ships with 16 AA NiMH batteries rated at 2700 mAh each. The set targets photographers, flash users and anyone who cycles through many cells. A battery case is included for storage and transport.

Sustained charging behaviour

The ninth-generation MH-NM7108 microprocessor manages eight independent slots. Turbo mode delivers 2.0 A for AA cells and reaches full charge in about 60 minutes; default mode uses 1.0 A and takes roughly 120 minutes. Conditioning mode refreshes older packs. The charger accepts 100-240 V AC input for worldwide use.

Installation and common issues

Insert up to eight AA or AAA cells per session; the unit handles 1 to 8 pieces in any mix. Select the desired mode on the front panel. The main friction point is remembering to match the charge current to the cell size — 1.0 A for AAA in turbo can stress smaller batteries. CE certification is noted.

Questions about this item

How hot or noisy does the C980 charger get when running all day?

The C980 uses a ninth-generation MH-NM7108 microprocessor with eight independent slots that manage current per cell, so heat and fan noise stay low even during extended Turbo sessions.

What must I already own for the C980 to work out of the box?

The C980 includes a 100-240V AC power cord and 16 AA NiMH cells, so no extra cables or batteries are required to start charging.

Will the C980 charge the older NiCd cells I still have?

Yes, the C980 charges both NiMH and NiCd chemistries in any of its eight independent slots, using Turbo at 2.0A for AA or Default at 1.0A.
