p.1 #1 · Best Dual-Battery Charger for NP-W126S Batteries?


Hi All,

Any recommendations on a dual-battery usb-charged charger for the Fuji batteries? I had one for my Sony that I really liked as it was super slim, charged by micro-usb, and easy to tuck in my camera bag for travel.

I'm looking at this one, but am curious of others' opinions.

Thank you,
Trevor

I just got one of these:
https://www.nitecorestore.com/NITECORE-FX1-Charger-for-Fujifilm-Camera-Battery-p/chg-nite-fx1.htm

Really small charger, has a useful display and actually will test your battery and it monitors temperature of the battery while charging. It is the only third party charger that I have seen that uses the sensor on the battery. Really small and compact too.

Oh wow. This charger looks fantastic. It even has a space on the side to keep the USB cable!

How is the charger as far as keeping the Fuji batteries charged, safe to use in the camera, etc.?

I actually use my Battery booster for my X-t2. Pull the tray out and charge two batteries at once. It just so happens I purchased that battery grip before considering a dual battery charger.

That is really nice. I just ordered one.
I have one of those dual JJC type ones but labeled as wasabi and I have noticed atleast mine it never seem to fully charge the battery. It would seem like it did with the red light turning green but the battery would die much faster vs using my fuji charger to charge the battery.

I have mostly Fuji brand batteries and some Wasabi batteries. With the Wasabi charger the Fuji batteries never seemed to charge all the way. With the Nitecore charger they seem to charge just fine, it tells you the voltage as it is charging, how much current is going into the battery and how much it has charged the battery, and then has a bar graph showing the amount charged currently. When done it tells you that it is fully charged and charged ok. The single display will alternate between battery 1 and battery 2 if you have 2 batteries charging. The charge time seems to be around 2 hours. So far no issues at all.

Just got my Nitecore charger today. Crazy fast shipping and this charger is very nice. Its nice to see the digital display on the battery charge level vs a blinking light. Also lets me know if the battery is still good and temp of the battery. Plus it was alot cheaper then the dual digital charger on amazon i have seen.

I got that very model, works just fine. I stopped using the Fuji charger. Very convenient when traveling. Never dared using the batteries, just using the charger.

Purchased this charger and received it promptly from "Nitecorestore.com". The unit is very compact unlike the OEM charger with the long cord, which takes up space in my mirrorless bag. Charger works great and the 8.4v /1000mA....... visible on the led screen. SMALL FOOTPRINT..........

.....led screen is very easy to read (wht font on blk background)

....."DONE" apperars when charging is complete (no idiot lites)

.....great warranty for the 1yr. Then a free, limited, thereafter (labor and maintenance only)

.....My invoice included the physical address and telephone number of Nitecorestore, in clear view, easy to find. Very nice for the price, happy with this purchase.

Recommended!
