Battery Logic UK - Technoline BL-700 or BC900 battery charger?

The most frequently asked question we have regarding these two battery chargers is 'What's the difference?'

The most obvious difference between the two battery chargers is that one is black and the other is blue and that the iCharger (BC900) is supplied with 4 x 2700mAh AA batteries, a carry case and some C and D battery converters. The BL700 is supplied on its own without the batteries, carry bag etc.

On the face of it the two chargers look identical and that is because physically they are identical as they share the same casing, displays and buttons. The functionality is also the same for both battery chargers, they both perform the same Charge, Discharge, Test and Refresh operations.

The only difference from a technical point of view is that the iCharger (BC900) has a number of higher charge current settings. The charge current setting common between the two units are 200, 500 and 700mA whereas the iCharger (BC900) also allows you to charge all four batteries at a faster 1000mA and then even higher charge current settings of 1500 or 1800mA if you are charging just one or two batteries.

The higher charge currents offered by the iCharger (BC900) mean that it is potentially a faster charger as charge time is directly proportional to the charge current applied.

However, neither charger is billed as a 'fast' charger, they are both very popular simply because they are very thorough chargers which give you the opportunity to select the charge current that suits your individual requirements.
