Tools and Hardware Reviews of Panasonic EY0230B 7.2-Volt to 15.6-Volt Pod Style 45 Minute Battery Charger

Customer Review: Good, But Too Slow!
Summary: 4 Stars

I still yern for my old 1.2Ah 'C' battery and it's 15min charging time. Alas, they were withdrawn at the beginning of this year just before I got around to buying a new one.

I note Metabo now have a charger that will charge 1.4Ah batteries in just 11mins, and 2.0Ah batteries in just 16mins, while Panasonic's 2.0Ah 'F' battery takes 30mins with this charger. And Metabo claim their batteries will take 3000 charges to Panasonic's 1200. I think Panasonic's losing it's competitive edge.
