Looking from recommendations as I know from your existence on this board that many of you will have turned to rechargeable to cover all your remotes and gadgets.

Criteria is pretty simple.

-- aa and aaa (preferably can do both at the same time.)

-- My old one is dead and the batteries are so old that I don't mind investing in new batteries, so the type of batteries used with the new charger is not a concern. Previous was LSD NiHM

-- Fast recharging is not a big concern. I keep enough spares that there is not normally a panic.

-- I tried buying a cheap "Energizer", 4 battery model to replace my old. Batteries charged to full with it seem to die prematurely (a week instead of multiple months in my remotes) so I'm not happy with it.

-- Smart charging is important but discharge modes, refresh modes, test etc... all seem like really nice features but I got along without them for years with my first charger so I don't know how much value they add for the extra $$

Thanks all. Your advice is appreciated, as always.
