    I'm cool with the CR123 and watch batteries and what-not, but I always try to make sure that my gear runs AAA or AA, simply because of how common and easy to find they are AND the potential for recharging.

      You can also get adapters to allow you to use a AA in a C or D type battery need.

    I know each of these suggestions would increase the unit price, but you could release a "pro" version that includes them at a higher price point for those interested.
    Having two USB ports than can charge in parallel would probably be better than doing a daisy-chain. I'm guessing the daisy-chain to a secondary device increases the charge time for both?
    Rather than charging 4 batteries at a time and the rest is storage, have it actively charge 4 and those that are charged kick to into trickle charge compartment keeping them topped up until needed
    Have a USB port connected to the trickle charge compartment so you can use a cluster of batteries to charge your phone/camera/etc like a mini USB power bank fed by AA batteries, useful in a power outage.

      The problem with NiMH AAA is that the voltage is nominally lower at 1.2v -1.3v vs. alkaline at 1.5v. Every battery will experience voltage drop when in use, the difference is that NiMH have less headroom for that drop in voltage and if you are using multiple cells this effect is amplified. 3 cells and your 4.5volts that are needed is only 3.6v-3.9v. when supplied by NiMH. If you are going to invest in rechargeable batteries, Lithium ion are the way to go as they match alkaline batteries at 1.5v. Consider XTAR AAA Lithium 1620mWh Batteries instead.

    This is a hard NO, because it is designed for NiMH and not lithium rechargables. It is doubtful that a software update will change that. Promises of future upgrades are Vaporware that most often never comes to fruition. Add to that its expensive for a charger that only charges outdated batteries.

    Rechargeable AA/AAA are really expensive. I have no reason to have this many batteries on hand. I instead when with a battery holder, to keep the batteries sorted, and just use my 18650 charger since it checks the state my NiMH while charging.

      Recharge and then put in a tray in the fridge or freezer so the self discharge slows down. I've done this for years and they hold a charge way longer than if you charge and leave out in room temperature.

    Kickstarter? But Olight is an established company. Makes me wonder if internally they had no faith they would get their money back so they pushed the cost onto consumers.
