very good
2007-09-19I really needed this because I travel often to Africa and I am happy I can use it there too because it has an alternate adaptor for 220V. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a battery charger

Digital Batteries with Charger
2007-05-22The digital battery charge was just what I was looking for. Package arrived quickly and in good shape. Thanks.

AA Charger
2007-01-28It works as advertised and very quickly. I haven't used the car charger but the household 120 volt works as advertised. I'd recommend it.

Save your money
2007-01-20I bought this item because I liked the feature of being able to charge in the car or home. From the time that I charged them and put them in my Canon the battery indicator always blinked meaning that the batteries were low. I tried charging these many times. Don't know if the charger or the batteries are no good, I think it is the charger. I bought a Sony charger and batteries and have had good luck they are outstanding and last a long time! I charged the CTA batteries in the Sony charger and now I use the CTA batteries in my flashlight but won't put them back in my Canon.

Good value for money
2006-11-05Batteries have quite a long life, and recharging takes one hour.

Digital cameras are good for the environment
As we consider the digital camera revolution that has taken place over the last decade, most people think about it in terms of enhanced benefits for consumers. We can take a lot more pictures at much lower cost with digital cameras versus film cameras. We can also more easily manipulate and share those photos since they're all in the digital realm.
But one thing many people don't think about actually deserves mention as potentially the most profound effect of the digital camera revolution: how digital cameras greatly reduce the destructive impact on the environment compared to film cameras.
At first, you might think, "How can that be? My film camera didn't harm the environment!" Even though it wasn't your camera that harmed the environment, your film processing did indeed harm it. Any time you take your pictures to a photo processing center, that film is run through batches of chemicals. These chemicals are environmental hazards, and once they are used to process film, those chem ...
Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
