Is it possible to charge only 1 battery or should you have 2 charging at the same time?

Yes, you can charge only 1 battery at a time. I do this often. I find that this charger works very well and I like it.

Because two batteries charge at close to the same rate, and are not identical in their depletion, the charger stops charging the first battery that's full, charging only the one battery that's left. Sounds like it should be able to do only one.

There is only one USB port so you can only charge both devices at the same time if you have a splitter. Otherwise you can only charge one device at a time.

It depends a little on your charger. Many chargers charge two cells (batteries) at the same time by putting them in series. That means they are both being charged at the same rate and are stopping at the same time. With this kind of charger, one should keep a pair of cells together for their whole life. If your charger has room for two pairs, the second pair can be different. If your charger has separate lights for each cell, then each cell can be different.

Hi PeterYes, you are quite right. I hadn't tried that but my unit will not do both at the same time. In practice I have a dual USB charger so the need has never arisen. Regards Richard Allan.

It will charge 2 @ AA or 2 @ AAA or one of each.....but not a single battery of either type: only 2 at a time.

Hello Sharon, It depends on how you plan on connecting them. Technically you can parallel the two together and use a single charge controller but this can become cumbersome with the wiring. You can also use the two kits independently to charge different batteries or the same bank. If charging the same bank it is best if you put the second kit on the opposite battery posts of the first one.Please contact us for any further inquiries - customerservice@carmanah.comGo Power! Team

Sure, you can use more than one 12v battery, but the multiple batteries must be wired in parallel, NOT series. "Parallel" means like terminals (+/-) must be wired together. You should consult an electrician if you aren't sure how to do this. I'm not sure about charging capacity - I suspect it will take longer to re-charge multiple batteries. You may want to ask Tripp Lite about that.

there is no way to charge 2 NiMH batteries at once? adapter board such as the one for lipo? is there a dual charger designed to charge 2 NiMH batteries at once?

I commonly charge two 36v lead batteries at the same time using separate electrical outlets. I don't know anything about charging lithium batteries.

Yes you can charge them both at the same time but it's very slow. It took over 24 hours to charge my S3 batteries. Also very cheaply made, I broke it before i even got it out of the box. Had to use duct tape. I do not recommend this product at all. UBOC is much better

The equipment I use the batteries in uses 3 batteries so I only charge 3 and it works fine. I have not tried it but if it lights up at the top of the battery with only one then it is charging the one. The light will move from bottom to top when it is charging.

I just called Deltran (the company that makes these) and they said it is not intended to charge more than one battery because the charging circuit will only detect the charge condition of the first battery it is connected to, and so any other battery connected in parallel may not get fully charged.

I would contact the seller, it definitely sounds like they reversed the order. Who needs two chargers for one battery? Now two chargers for two batteries would be ok.

Only one at a time but it charges a dead battery in under 30 minutes normally. (let the battery cool first if needed or it takes a little longer)

Because the battery charges inside the Scooba, you couldn't actually charge 2 batteries at the same time, but you could charge 2 within a 24-hour period, maybe even a 16-hour period--charge battery #1, swap it out & charge #2, run a cycle with battery #2, swap out to battery #1 & run a second cycle.

Yes. More than 1 can be charged at a time. My tablet drains faster than cell does when both being charged but still charges both.

Could not find any information stating to charge in pairs only. My charger has room for 8 batteries but I only charge 6 at once with no issues. The charger does get warm but it never had any issues.
