Ansmann Powerline 8 battery charger 

The Ansmann Powerline 8 charger is a smart charger with discharge function and a USB support for your laptop.

Once the charged battery, the charging process is automatically stopped and switched to the slow load (load buffer with current pulses). This feature ensures optimum performance and neutralizes the self-discharge. The battery can remain in the unit until it is ready to be used. If a non-rechargeable or defective battery accidentally, this will be indicated by a flashing red LED. Each stack is individually monitored during charging and it is loaded individually to its maximum capacity. For batteries that have become a little "tired" after a long storage, a discharge function is available. Unloading and reloading several times, these batteries can be refreshed and the capacity can be increased. The USB port offers the possibility to also charge mobile devices.
