Earlier this year, I got an Olight Ostation for recharging AA batteries. At the time, I was wishing they also had one that did AAA batteries.

Then, I stumbled across Olight’s Ostation Pro that would recharge both AA and AAA. Cool. Backed it. Expect to get it sometime this year or early next.

Then I found out Olight does have an Ostation for recharging AAA’s. It came in last week right before Thanksgiving. I did some quick rearranging in the home office to put all my major rechargers into one spot. Plus, there’s enough room for the Pro when it comes in.

So, as The Wife looked on bemusedly, I went through and recharged the family’s inventory of AA and AAA batteries. She’s also amused that I added another battery caddy to the mix. Now, I have one for upstairs, one for downstairs, one near the battery station that will hold all the recharged batteries until time to reload the others, and then one final one to hold all my one-shots and my lithiums.

So far, I have only one complaint about the new Ostation. Olight really just did the minimum amount to swap it over to AAA, which means the little lever dispenser is sized for AA, not AAA. This means instead of getting one at a time like I do with the original, they tend to pour out in spurts of two to three.
