Product information

DC 5 V USB input lets you charge on the go

Weighing just 39 grams, BQ-CC80 is great for travel thanks to DC 5 V USB input. You can use your laptop's USB port, a power bank, your phone's AC adapter, or the DC 5 V outlet in your car or airplane seat to charge your eneloop batteries. Since there always seem to be more devices to charge than AC outlets, being able to charge eneloop and other devices with an aftermarket multi-port AC adapter is really handy.

Note: USB power adapter not included. Weight excludes the supplied USB charging cable. 

Basic charger with
LED indicator

If you mostly use your AA/AAA eneloop batteries in low-drain devices that don't require frequent charging, BQ-CC80 is a solution with excellent cost performance. An LED indicator lights green while charging and switches off after a fixed 10-hour period, enough time for the inserted batteries to fully charge.

Note: If battery capacity exceeds the maximum listed in the table at the bottom of this page, the battery will not fully charge before the timer expires.

Battery checker with
LED indicator

The charger checks if the installed batteries can be charged. If a battery is inserted incorrectly or a dry battery is installed, the light above the slots flashes green, and the power supply to both slots is shut off for safety.

Supported battery combinations

You can recharge 2x AA or 2x AAA eneloop batteries. As an entry model, two batteries of the same size must be charged together at the same time. The charger switches off automatically after a fixed 10-hour period.

Note: It is not possible to charge single batteries in this device, or to charge one AA and one AAA battery at the same time. If battery capacity exceeds the maximum listed in the table at the bottom of this page, the battery will not fully charge before the timer expires.

Using your battery charger

Step 1

Insert the batteries into the slots according to the indicated polarity (+/-). When inserting a battery, you should fit the battery's negative terminal end first and then gently press the top of the battery into the slot. Pull out the positive terminal end first when removing the battery.

Note: Inserting the positive (+) terminal end of AAA batteries first may risk damaging the charger.

Step 2

Connect the charger to a compatible USB power adapter using the supplied USB charging cable. Plug in the USB power adapter to an AC 100–240 V outlet. It's also possible to charge via a computer's DC 5 V USB port. Once connected, the charger will turn on and check the batteries.

Note: USB power adapter not included.

Step 3

After checking is complete, the light above the slots turns solid green to indicate that the installed batteries are being charged. If an invalid battery is inserted or a battery is installed incorrectly, the light flashes green, and power to both slots is shut down to prevent damage to the batteries and charger.

Step 4

The charger is equipped with a safety timer that shuts off power to all slots after 10 hours. The light switches off when this period has elapsed.

Note: Charging times shown in the table are approximate and can vary depending on temperature and battery condition. If battery capacity exceeds the maximum listed in the table, the battery will not fully charge before the timer expires.
