i just bought that casio charger at AP for $45 a couple of hours ago

Mine is cheaper. By the way, can you let me know if those included Casio batteries of yours are precharged too?

Is there a discharge feature on this charger? What batteries can it uses? Not much info I can find from web...

Seems like the price range for the Casio Charger ranges from $40 ~ $70. I wonder why? I got mine together with +4 Close Up filter at $70. I think either the salesman is earning tons of money or losing tons of money by selling lesser than cost!

My usual understanding is that the batteries should be empty if it's new. Just need to confirm. Well, I can't do anything even if it's been used before, no way to proof to them.

As for me, I was already quoted the lowest price possible (cheaper than MaGixShOe's) without the need to bargain.

Finally bought the charger at $45. I had to say that I previously bought my A40 from there before they were willing to sell it to me at that price.

Having bought the charger, I realised that it can't charge AAA batteries. Also, regardless of whether you charge 1 or 4 batteries, the charging time is still 180mins. For those who are thinking of buying it please note.

Guess I will still have to hold on to my MW4798 to charge my AAAs. My house is begining to look like a power substation .
