Evaluation:  
Conclusion: Standard charger for NP-60 Casio battery
Review: This is the standard charger for NP-60 battery that comes with some Casio cameras, like the EX-Z80.
The Good:
- It is a very well built charger, solid and takes the abuse easily.
- The battery charges very fast. The standard 720mAh battery that came with my Casio EX-Z80 camera charged in about one hour.
- The power cable is just a simple cable and does not have the bulky power supply built in the head. All the power conversion/insulation is in the charger itself.
The Not So Good:
- It does not come with a car adapter.
- Although the charger works at 110 as well as 220V, at 50/60Hz, does not come with a "prong" adapter, so if you travel over seas you must bring along your own prong adapters so you can plug it in any outlet.
- Since the charger has everything built in, they could have designed the power prongs directly in it, such that one would not need the cable at all (although some people prefer it like this, because it does not hang the whole charger on the wall which is nice, but then you have to carry the cable around)
Overall a very good charger, but at this price should have come with a car adapter at least, which is the reason I gave it a 4 star instead of 5.
Evaluation:
Conclusion: Solid charger, very sturdy and reliable
Review: This Casio charger is very similar in design to the Casio BC-11L, which charges Casio NP-20 batteries. It looks almost identical, and if appearance mean anything, it should hold up very well just like the BC-11L. Super-sturdy and tough, it keeps doing its job even when well-used and even a little beat up!
Evaluation:
Conclusion: Not really for travel
Review: This is more of a replacement charger than a travel charger. Don't order it thinking you will get something more compact than the one that came with your camera. No special adapters, either.
