 Great little battery charger, does what it's supposed to September 2, 2010
M. Keller (Northern VA)
This little charger works! Lost the battery charger that came with my camera and was shocked at how expensive replacement Sony branded chargers are. I normally prefer branded items for things like battery chargers, but after reading the other reviews, I decided to take a chance on this. It does what it's supposed to - it charged my battery in about 2 hours (from dead). The light is supposed to have different colors, but for some reason the light colors didn't match the instructions. It was a little different, so I could still tell when it was charged versus not. I would prefer it gave an indication of how much charge is in the battery, but for under $10, I can't complain.
PROS: nice plug - flips into the charger body for a smaller footprint, small and easy to carry, has a car charger (although I haven't tried it yet)
Sony battery charger August 27, 2010
Allan J. Reichenbach
The product worked fine once I figured out how to correctly put the battery in the charger. The directions could be clearer. Great deal for the price. Item came in good time.
Worked great August 19, 2010

I took this in the car on a 6 hr road trip to go to a concert. I charged three batteries for my camera and took over 200 pix! Batteries were fully charged and stayed charged as long as expected. I only went through 1.5 batteries. I also took video and panoramic pix which uses more battery. I would recommend this item to anyone using compatible batteries.
It does charges my Sony battery perfectly! August 15, 2010
D. Guerrero (Redondo, CA USA)
Want to agree with all the other 5 star reviewers! The only thing you have to remember is to put in the battery with fine print facing up and plug it in!
Works with the Sony NP-BG1 battery July 11, 2010
E. Nabors
This charger works perfectly with a Sony NP-BG1 battery. The only wrinkle (and I suspect this may explain some of the problems people who gave it one star were having) is that you have to put the battery in backwards, i.e. so the back of the battery faces out.
I too noticed that the green light came on just from plugging it in, and putting the battery in with the front facing out did nothing. I was about to throw the charger out when my wife (being of an infinitely calmer mind at that point) tried putting the battery in backwards. On came the red light, the battery charged up perfectly, and all was well.
Don't let the cheap price scare you away. Buy this charger.
