Hello,
My small company has spent a lot of money on cordless drills over the past 10 years, just to get new batteries.
My manufacturing company has been using the Renaissance RC-1AU-120 charger for our five year old 14.4V cordless drill batteries. 6 out of 8 batteries are performing like new. The $320 charger saved me over $600 in new batteries.
The RC-1AU-120 charger is the only charger I allow employees to use on any battery. All traditional chargers are boxed up and sitting on the shelf. Everyone is simply amazed. Friends and family started bringing in old batteries... I've started telling them to "get their own charger".
Thank you guys for bringing such and innovative line of products to market!

I have purchased two battery chargers from Renaissance Charge. The first was 12V charger model # RC-2A12-2. After the success I had with the first charger, I purchased the universal rechargeable battery charger model #RC-1AU-120. I want to thank you for your fine products.
After purchasing the first charger this winter, I saw what it could do. I had an approximately 3 year old battery on my ATV. The battery would not stay charged after multiple attempts with an ordinary motorcycle battery charger. I could get the battery to start the ATV immediately after the charge, but by the next day, it was inoperable. After the Renaissance charger was used, the battery is as good as it was new. I have used it for months and it works impeccably.
When I heard that the company was coming out with a charger that would charge nickel-metal hydride and nickel-cadmium, I was eager to purchase one. I was very impressed after a drill battery of mine was brought back to useable service. The battery was over 17 years old and was all but useless. It only gave a few minutes of service before becoming so weak it could not be used. I had given up on it and had laid it aside to be recycled or discarded. After using your charger, it is as good as new. It is powerful and useful.
Thank you for your excellent products. I am a very satisfied customer.
Sincerely,

My father in-law is absolutely in love with his RC-1AU-120. The battery
in his electric weed eater has increased charge density (based on
running time) of about 110% after just 8 or 9 charge cyles. We have
charged all manner of 12v & 18v tool batteries, back-up power supply
batteries, 1,000,000 candlelight power flashlight batteries, cordless
phone battery packs, etc. The results are just stunning and it won't be
long before every guy I know will have one or want one.
By the way we're also charging the latest and greatest NiMH batteries
produced by Sanyo called Eneloop(google it). The world's 1st pre-charged
rechargeable battery product. They claim that they're battery will
retain at least 80% of it's initial charge capacity after 1 year's time.
Of course that mean's they've already resigned us to a dying product but
it will die more slowly. OK. My 1st set of batteries lasted for 285
pictues in my brand new digital camera on their original charge. So
after 1 year I should still get about 228 pictures per conventional
charge. That's not bad I guess, except that after one radiant charge on
the RC-1AU-120 the batteries lasted for 513 pictures. I've only just
radiantly charged it a second time, so I'm snapping away again. Who
would've thought that charging batteries could be this much fun!
Cheers,

I'm glad to say that I have received my new universal charger and have successfully revived a 7.6V cordless drill battery.

I have attached a graph showing the results of testing the Renaissance Charger RC-1AU-240.
The testing was done on a 5 year old 18V 2.4Ah NiCd portable drill battery.
Whilst the battery still has one shorted cell and one weak cell (out of 15 cells), the RC-1AU-240 was able to recover this battery that would not hold a charge with the original charger.
After firstly charging on a lower (12V) setting where only 10 cells were visible I was then able to charge the battery on the full 18V setting where the battery's capacity increased by over 250%!
This battery was destined for the dump, but has now been placed back in service - saving over $200 that would have been spent to replace it.

Thanks, I recieved it and put it test right away! I was able to recharge an old and tired Porter Cable 18V battery and even after the first charge I can tell it's got more guts than it should have normally. So far great product.

Wow! I can't believe the power that is now in that battery. It was a weak drill before. I had to push so much harder than I do now. I am so impressed. So amazing.
