The Nikon MH-62 Charger - Works for Newer Cameras Like the S52 and S52c July 21, 2008

Nikon MH-62 Battery Charger for Coolpix P1, P2, S1 & S3 Digital Camera is designed to charge the rechargable Lithium-ion EN-EL8 battery. I doubt many people are still buying or using the P1, P2, S1 and S3 these days. The good news is that this is the same battery used in the newer versions of Nikon's S class cameras, including the Nikon Coolpix S52 and the Nikon Coolpix S52c.

I don't know if any newer P series cameras still use the EN-EL8, as several I have purchased appear to use AA batteries. But the S5x series cameras definitely use this battery and charger, as I have owned several and this is compatible with all of them.

The small indicator light on the charger will blink till it is charged. When the light turns solid, it is important to remove the battery so as to not over-charge it. While this charger appears to not overcharge (I've left it in a little longer by accident) it's impossible to tell and I am incredibly paranoid about burning out those LI-ON batteries.

Charging is quick and generally done within about an hour. I have no complaints with the way it works.

But I do have to deduct at least 1 star for the price, which seems slightly high for what it is.

There are other chargers made by 3rd parties, but I stick with Nikon branded ones to protect my investment and preserve the life of my batteries.

While all Nikon cameras that use rechargeable batteries generally come with chargers, having an extra is a must for travel or convenience. Definitely grab one if you have an S5x series camera or another one that uses the rechargable lithium-ion EN-EL8 battery.

Enjoy!

Good unit with one minor problem July 15, 2007

Good product - however - for long term storage the battery should be DISCHARGED ! I would hope the unit would AUTOMATICALLY take care of that necessity, charging the battery when one wanted to use it, perhaps overnight the night before intended use.

Nikon MH-62 Review June 14, 2007
Faith Development LLC Hamilton
We tried ordering another compatible battery charger from another web site. The price gave you more for your money, but when we got the product it didn't work. We went ahead and ordered this one, which is what actually came with the camera, and it worked perfectly. I'm glad Amazon had it available.
