The Soshine H4 LCD Li-ion/NiMH/LiFePO4 Battery Charger for 14500 18350 18650 26650 AA AAA C is a universal charger designed for multiple battery types, ideal for camping, travel, and emergency preparedness. For example, it can charge your 18650 batteries for a flashlight or AA batteries for a headlamp during a camping trip, ensuring reliable power for nighttime activities. With an LCD display and adjustable current settings, it offers efficient functionality. Featuring a 1-year warranty, this Soshine H4 Charger for Outdoor Use suits campers, travelers, and tech enthusiasts.
Efficient Charging for Outdoor Use
The Soshine H4 Charger supports a wide range of rechargeable batteries, including Li-ion (3.7V: 26650, 18650, 18350, 16340, 14500, 10440), LiFePO4 (3.2V: 26650, 18650, 16340, 14500, 10440), and NiMH/Ni-CD (1.2V: C, AA, AAA). It features four independent charging slots with adjustable currents of 1000mA, 500mA, or 250mA per slot, and supports DC input (12V 2000mA) or solar panel input (18V >20W). The LCD display shows battery type, voltage, and charging status, with features like reverse polarity protection, precision end-of-charge voltage detection, and auto-activation for 0V lithium cells. The charger uses CC/CV for Li-ion/LiFePO4 and Delta V for NiMH batteries, ensuring safe charging, though some users note the batteries can get warm during charging, suggesting monitoring during use. This makes the H4 a practical choice for outdoor use, though users should ensure proper ventilation during charging.
Durable and Compact Design
The Soshine H4 Charger is designed for portability, with a compact size of 135mm in length, 98mm in width, and 36mm in height, weighing 285g (384g with AC adapter and car plug). The black plastic housing is lightweight yet durable, suitable for outdoor environments like camping or travel, though it lacks an official IP rating, so users should avoid water exposure to prevent damage. The charger includes both an AC adapter (EU/US/AU/UK plug) and a car charger, enhancing its versatility, but some users report the instructions are hard to read due to small print, suggesting a magnifying glass or digital manual for clarity. This makes the H4 a durable, compact choice for outdoor use, though users should protect it from moisture and ensure they can read the manual for proper operation.
Designed for Outdoor and EDC Use
The Soshine H4 Charger for Outdoor Use is tailored for campers, travelers, and tech enthusiasts needing a reliable, universal charger for various batteries during outdoor activities, emergencies, or EDC setups. For example, it can charge 18650 batteries for a dive light or AA batteries for a radio, ensuring you're prepared for a multi-day trip, though the warmth generated during charging may be a concern in confined spaces, requiring good ventilation. The charger's ability to detect battery type and polarity automatically makes it user-friendly, but users should note that it may charge at a slightly higher voltage (e.g., 1.4V for 1.2V NiMH batteries), which could affect battery longevity if not monitored. The H4's compact design, adjustable current, and solar panel compatibility make it a practical addition to any outdoor kit, offering a balance of functionality and portability, though users should plan for charging conditions and battery compatibility.
