Hi,

I bought one a few months ago in Boots in Glasgow in the reduced section. It might be worth calling customer services to see if any branches near you have one. The other alternative is ebay where there are some for sale.0

Usually the 15 minute claim is to give a battery a 'useable charge' not fully charge them.
I've got the uniross sprint and it's very fussy on batteries - it's sensor won't have anything to do with most non-uniross brands.All the World is a Stage; and I'm going through a difficult one at the moment!0 -
Uniross Sprint charger is £6.99 + postage at mymemory.

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but 800mAh are really low powered batts these days. Up to 2800mAh are available these days and there are chargers around that will charge these in less than an hour. OK, so not the 15 minutes you are looking for, but with MUCH higher capacity, they will last longer, meaning you have more time to charge the spare set.0

I'm looking for one that does both AAA and AA , I borrowed a UniRoss one recently from a family member , but I checked for it online only to find it was discontinued
I'd mainly be using it for AA batteries mainly for my Xbox 360 controllers and Wiimote . 0 -
7dayshop.co.uk have a good selection of batteries/chargers, sometime Aldi have them on offer too.
The AAA tend to be for low power devices, 2500 mha AA are a good price/power ratio
Chargers tend to do both AA and AAA.0 -

£4.94 at Maplin for the same one but it's only a 2 battery charger.

But it'll be £22 delivered - I daresay there is a better deal out there but I'm off on my hols - packing to do!All the World is a Stage; and I'm going through a difficult one at the moment!0
