Imren 26650 10400 battery charger
Product description
What to know
If you use rechargeable 3.7V Li-ion cells like 18650 or 26650 alongside 1.2V Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries, the IMREN 26650 10400 Battery Charger is built to simplify your charging routine. It supports both common chemistry types, with automatic detection and separate handling for batteries in the two slots. That means you can keep your power ready with fewer steps, whether you are topping off vape or flashlight cells or charging standard rechargeable packs. 🔋
This is a 2 bay USB-C charger designed around two independent charging paths, so each slot can charge separately. It also includes a two stage current choice for faster charging when you want it, with switching done using a button. Take note that this charger is for rechargeable batteries and you should not charge non rechargeable cells.
Key features
The core benefit is compatibility with different rechargeable battery types. According to the manufacturer, the charger can intelligently detect 3.7V Li-ion batteries and 1.2V Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries, then adjust charging behavior accordingly. You can load batteries without needing to manually select chemistry for each bay, since the two bays are designed to operate independently. ✅
You also get two charging current options for speed control. The charger offers a 1A mode (1000 mA) for slower charging and a 2A mode (2000 mA) for faster charging, selected via the middle button. The two slots are set up so the default behavior supports the slower current mode, and you can switch to the faster mode when you want quicker top ups. ⚡
Portability is another practical win. The USB C charging setup uses a USB cable that can connect to multiple power sources such as a USB charger, a car charger, a computer, a phone adapter, and other USB output devices. This gives you flexibility for home use, travel, and work setups, especially when you want to charge without being tied to a wall outlet.
Finally, the charger includes what you need to get started right away. The package includes 1 Imren 2 slot 3.7V and 1.2V battery charger, 1 USB C Type C cable, and 1 user manual. Checking your battery compatibility before charging helps ensure a smooth experience and reduces the chance of using the charger incorrectly.

Who it’s for
It makes sense if you have a mixed rechargeable collection, such as 3.7V Li-ion cells alongside 1.2V Ni-MH or Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries, and you want one charger that handles both chemistries. You’ll appreciate it if you prefer flexibility in where you charge, since USB C power sources can be used at home, in your car, or near a computer. It also suits everyday users who want two bays for convenience, without pairing requirements that force you to charge identical batteries together.
It might not be a great match if you only own one battery type and you want a single chemistry charger, because you may not need the broader compatibility features. Also, remember that this unit should not be used to charge non rechargeable batteries, and it’s best to confirm your batteries are rechargeable before plugging anything in.
