Tests internal resistance of a battery to tell you how healthy it is. Charges at a user selectable rate from 200mA up to 1000mA with 4 cells or 2000mA with 2 cells. Can charge LiFePo batteries to 3.7V (LiFePo), 4.2V (most lithium ion batteries), or 4.35V (some lithium ion batteries designed for this voltage). Also chargers NiMH batteries. The BT-C3100 v2.2 ([http://www.gearbest.com/chargers/pp_173012.html $34] at Gearbest) appears to be the same charger as the BT-3400 which was sold at Amazon. | * [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Y9K254G?ie=UTF8&tag=tedsbatterpac-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00Y9K254GOpus Opus BT-C3100] Popular 4-bay charger that can test capacity of cells at a selectable discharge rate of up to 1000mA down to 2.8V.

* [http://www.illumn.com/batteries-chargers-and-powerpax-carriers/nitecore-d4-digicharger.html Nitecore Digicharger D4] Nitecore makes a 4-bay charger similar to the I4 above, but with a digital readout for voltage and current (about $25-30) as well as a 2-bay [http://www.illumn.com/batteries-chargers-and-powerpax-carriers/nitecore-d2-digicharger.html D2]. Maximum charging current is 750mA, but only 375mA when charging 3 or 4 batteries. Has an option for low current (150mA) for charging 10440 an 14500 batteries. Can also charge LiFePO cells which have a lower maximum voltage.
