Ok, so I have 2 no name chargers that came with some mod I bought a long time ago and I use it occasionally to charge the Efest 18500 batteries as well as these no name 18500 batteries. I am looking to buy a new charger, something a little more reliable or "safe", and since I don't know much about batteries and frankly all the different types kinda confuse me, I just want to be safe in the end. I have some batteries I am using now, the pink one is the one that came with my Evic, I am just looking for a charger that can hopefully charge all these types of batteries? I just want to make sure! Err... i guess I will have to post the pic through Tapa.

Well... I would suggest the nitcore chargers as they are inexpensive and good quality.

You could use a few new batteries however. That pink Samsung is an ICR chemistry battery. Not really the safe choice with all of the quality imr choices out there. Same goes for the no name blue 18500.

I Believe that All of the Batteries you show are 3.7 Volt Li-Ion Based. So if one of your Chargers will charge one of them, it Should Charge them ALL.

That is, of Course, if they will Physically Fit into the Charger.

I'm not a Big Fan of No-Name Chargers. And would suggest you Consider Upgrading to a Named Charger.

Yea I don't plan to use the blue no name battery anymore but I definitely need a bigger and better charger. Actually 2 slots is good enough, don't really need 4. What's wrong with the Samsung battery? I thought the included Evic battery was supposed to be pretty decent. So any charger that can charge one of these types can charge all of these rechargeable types of battery? I can also put rechargeable AA'S in those chargers?

NO!

The Charger has to Specifically Say that It Can Charge AA (1.2v) Batteries. If it Doesn't Say it can Charge BOTH 3.7v and AA Batteries, or just Say 3.7v Charger, NEVER Put a AA or ANY OTHER 1.2v Type Battery in it.

This Nitecore can Do Both 3.7v and AA

There might be Other Chargers that Can. But I Don't Know of Any.
