workhorse charger
"I've been using one of these as my main charger for years. Always works, and finds 'dead-cells' immediately. Excellent, dependable unit."












The newest addition to Nitecore's already impressive line of chargers, the Intellicharge i4 2016 Edition is one of the most powerful and versatile chargers on the market! This newly upgraded charger has over twice the compatibility as its previous model, able to charge over 30 different types of batteries from a wide range of chemistries. In addition to having twice the versatility of its previous model, the new i4 features twice the charging power, capable of producing 1.5A of charging current in a single bay, compared to 750mA from the original i4. Each of the charger's 4 charging bays works independently, detecting the capacity and voltage of the installed battery and applying the appropriate current, allowing you to charge up to 4 different kinds of batteries simultaneously. The innovative charger even enhances the charging process mid-charge, redistributing the overall charging current in real time for optimal charging progress.
With all the impressive charging current it can put out, the new i4 had to be designed with safety as a priority. Constructed using flame retardant and fire resistant PC materials and featuring intelligent temperature monitoring, the charger can be used to its fullest capability without fear of fire or combustion. The i4 is also prepared for human error, automatically detecting improperly inserted batteries as well as non-rechargeable batteries and notifying the user on its easy-to-read LED screen before damage is caused to both the battery and the charger.

"I've been using one of these as my main charger for years. Always works, and finds 'dead-cells' immediately. Excellent, dependable unit."
"Couldn't pass up this charger. It will charge every type of battery that I use on my devices. I have two other older chargers but they won't charge the new battery types. Now I have one device that will safely charge every type of rechargeable battery that I have. I was concerned about Li-ion batteries exploding but this charger monitors the recharge to prevent that problem,"
"What exactly do the blinking lights mean? When it is finished charging the lights will show what? 'Press the C button to select a slot' - how do I know which slot is selected? How exactly do you change current and voltage settings? The instructions do explain this but not in any way I can make sense of. Do you have to be a Chinese electrical engineer to figure this thing out, or am I just too stupid to charge a few batteries? So I put my batteries in this for a few hours and hope that they are charged, other than that I cannot understand who would think the user guide was adequate for this product!"
"The charger works. We did no need the extra modes but a satisfied."
"My 2nd one. During a last big storm it took me a while to charge all my batteries. The batteries get a little bit hot by the end of a full charge. I chose to stay with my same charger rather than one that may charge faster. Think I have 6 nitecore flashlights and 3 chargers."
"The charger works fast - charges 16 batteries in a very short time!!"
"I HAVE MANY MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF . . . . . . . AA, AAA, LITHIUM ION. . . . THIS CHARGER CHARGES THEM ALL! VERY EASY TO USE TOO! YOU PUT YOUR BATTERY IN AND IT DOES THE REST! A GAME CHANGER FOR SURE. . . . . THE DAYS OF HAVING DIFFERENT CHARGERS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF BATTERIES ARE GONE!"
"This charger belies it's small, simple look by being the best charger I've ever had! I just replaced my old charger and that one didn't work very well at all. This is well worth the money to 'top off your list'. Great charger!"
"Great charger for many sizes of small batteries."
"Got this as a gift for a friend. She tells me that it would not charge the batteries consistently, often leaving the batteries half charged. Then, she reported a melting plastic type smell coming from it & found it hot to the touch."
