Sakar has some AA batteries they claim can be recharged in 8.5 minutes.
Anybody got any experience with them?
Google has thousands of hits, but they're all (all the ones I checked)
copies of the press release. Looking for real-world experience.
Thanks, mike

That sounds quite scary. Assuming they'd be a little over 2200mAh that
would mean about 20 amps of charge current. I wouldn't want to be close
to the batteries during that.

Do you have a well functioning fire extinguisher ...?

Regards, Joerg
