This charger will allow me to finally say goodbye to alkaline batteries in 2026
"First, it can charge up to eight batteries simultaneously. Just pop an AA or AAA battery (lithium ion or nickel metal hydride) into any one of the free slots -- and yes, it can handle both AA and AAA batteries, so you don't have to worry about what goes where -- pop on the magnetic cover, and away it goes."
"Another winning feature for me is that it can be run from any 15W or above USB-C charger . Most people have at least half a dozen of these lying around, or they have a multiport desktop charger to plug it into. However you choose to power it, it's far more convenient than plugging it into a wall outlet."
The Xtar L8 Box accommodates eight AA or AAA batteries and supports both nickel-metal hydride and lithium-ion chemistries. The unit charges all inserted cells simultaneously and uses a magnetic cover to secure batteries for storage and transport. The charger runs from any USB-C supply rated at 15W or higher, enabling use with common multiport desktop chargers or spare USB-C wall adapters. A full set of batteries reaches charge in about 2.6 hours, making the device suitable for maintaining household batteries ready for use without frequent recharging cycles.
