Ni-Cd or NiMH. [http://www.amazon.com/Ansmann-5207123-Energy-16-Charger/dp/B00017LRCC Ansmann Energy 16] is similar but has twice as many bays. Auto discharges to avoid memory effect. Charges each battery individually, based upon readings taken once each minute. Charge rate is not user-selectable, but rates are appropriate (300 mA for AAA, 700 mA for AA, and 1000 mA for C or D).

*[http://www.mahaenergy.com/store/viewItem.asp?idProduct=408 Maha MH-C808M] - 8-cell for AAA, AA, C, or D (no 9V). Has fast (2000mA for AA, 700mA for AAA) or gentle (1000mA for AA, 350 mA for AAA) charging cycle. This could be too fast for some batteries. Sanyo recommend a maximum charge rate of 950mA for their Eneloop AA cells for example. Can condition batteries and has LCD display. $90.

As long as batteries are charged individually, this should work. It is a very old model charger (introduced no later than 2001). $22.

As long as you charge one battery per bay, you are charging independently. Though it uses smart termination, it also automatically cuts off after a few hours, so high capacity D cells will take multiple charging cycles to actually get full from empty. 1100mA is a little high for some AA cells. It is available online but also bricks and mortar stores like [http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10242691 Walmart].
