If you are still using alkaline and non-rechargeable batteries in general, just STOP. Do your pocket and the environment a favor and use only rechargeable batteries.
Now, if you use many cylindrical rechargeable batteries, not just for the R/C hobby but for everything else as well, you may want to take a look at this C4 charger from ISDT.
I personally don't use 18650 much but I use a lot of AA and AAA Eneloop batteries, for remotes, wireless phones, camera flashes, repeaters/remote triggers etc. Conditioning all these batteries with conventional chargers can be a pain and here is where the C4 steps in.
It can charge at up to 25W, discharge at up to 10W and storage charge all the popular types of cylindrical batteries. It can also analyze but most importantly: it can "activate" depleted batteries and it can automatically perform cycle charging (repetitive charging and discharging for up to 66 cycles).
A power supply is included and it is ready to use right out of the box. The UI is nice and simple, the screen is bright and the overall form factor small.
My only gripe is that it can only fit up to 2 batteries (with the exception of AA which can fit up to 4) - I will probably have to buy AAA to AA adapters to be able to do 4 at a time.
This is BEST FOR LESS: ISDT C4 smart cylindrical battery charger - Let's go!
