Full details
The Hahnel UniPal Plus II is a versatile universal battery charger designed for photographers and videographers who use a variety of camera batteries and common AA/AAA cells. Its key benefit is its ability to charge nearly all 3.6V/3.7V and 7.2V/7.4V Li-Ion batteries, along with NiMH AA/AAA cells, all powered via USB-C. A potential caveat is that while it supports many battery types, users must ensure their specific battery is compatible.
