SCIGOLD Home Case · 8-slot charger
Eight slots. One USB-C cable.
The household charging case for SCIGOLD AA cells. Eight independent slots, and a full case in about 2.5 hours.
Inside the Home Case
The household hub for SCIGOLD AA cells.
SCIGOLD AA cells have no charging port of their own. The Home Case charges up to eight of them at once, from one USB-C cable.
8 slots
Eight cells. All at once.
All eight slots charge at the same time, at 360 mA each, from one USB-C cable. A full case takes about 2.5 hours from a 5V/3A source.
Each slot watches its own cell and stops when it is full, so a nearly empty cell and a half-full one can share the case. No matched sets, and a per-slot LED shows each cell charging.
AA or AAA
AA or AAA. In any mix.
Every slot has universal pin-style contacts that fit either size, and each cell charges to its own 1.5V Li-ion target.
SCIGOLD AAA cells are not sold yet, so today the Home Case charges SCIGOLD AA cells. The AAA support is built in for later.
Closed case
Close the lid. It charges.
The contacts sit in the lid and only touch the cells when it is fully closed. There are no exposed contacts to pick up metal debris, and the cells stay protected from short circuits, even in transit.
Size
The size of a coffee mug.
72.9 × 77.4 × 55.2 mm and 109 g, in aluminum alloy and ABS with a Titanium Silver finish.
It stays on a counter or a shelf as the household's AA hub, and looks more like a small thermos than a charger. For travel, the slim Pocket Case (CW505) holds four cells.
Why this charger
One hub for the whole house.
Eight slots at once
360 mA per slot. Each cell charges and stops on its own.
AA or AAA
Universal pin-style contacts take either size, in any mix.
USB-C 5V/3A
One cable, in the box. A full case in about 2.5 hours.
Closed case
The contacts only touch the cells with the lid shut, so nothing is left exposed.
Compatibility
Charges SCIGOLD AA cells.
- Cells
- SCIGOLD AA 1.5V Li-ion cells (4,440 mWh): the 4-pack and 8-pack of cells, and the cells in the AA Kit and the Family Bundle.
- AAA
- Every slot also takes 1.5V Li-ion AAA. SCIGOLD AAA cells are not sold yet.
- Not for
- NiMH or alkaline cells. The Home Case is made for 1.5V Li-ion AA and AAA only.
- Power
- A USB-C source that supplies 5V: a phone wall charger, a laptop USB-C port, a GaN brick or a power bank, including the SCIGOLD 100W and 150W wall chargers.
Good to know
- Cells not included. In the box: the Home Charging Case, a 1 m USB-C cable and a user guide.
- Need cells too? The Family Bundle (8 cells + Home Case) is $73.99, $12.99 less than an 8-pack and a Home Case bought separately.
- About 2.5 hours is for a full case from a 5V/3A USB-C source.
- SCIGOLD AA cells have no charging port; they charge only in the Home Case or the 4-slot Pocket Case (CW505).
Specs & details
Every number, in one place.
8 Slots. 1 Cable. One Hub for the House.
The household charging hub for SCIGOLD 1.5V AA Li-ion cells (every slot also takes AAA, though SCIGOLD AAA cells are not sold yet). Drop in up to 8 cells, plug a USB-C cable into anything that puts out 5V — phone charger, laptop USB-C port, GaN brick, power bank — and walk away.
The Home Case handles per-cell voltage termination independently. Load four nearly empty cells next to four half-full ones — each one charges to its own correct voltage and stops when it’s done. No matching pairs. No babysitting.

Why a Charging Case (Not a Cradle)
An open charging cradle leaves its contacts exposed. This one closes into a coffee-mug-sized cylinder that sits on a counter or shelf as the household’s AA hub. The 8 slots are arranged around a center post inside the lid; the contacts only touch when the lid is fully closed.
That means:
- Cells stay protected from short-circuit, even in transit
- No exposed contacts attracting metal debris
- It looks like a small thermos, not a piece of electronics
- All 8 cells stored and charged in one closed case
Pairs With
The Home Case is designed for SCIGOLD’s 1.5V AA Li-ion family. Best paired with:
- AA Kit (4 cells + Pocket Charging Case) — the daily-carry kit: its Pocket Case travels, the Home Case stays home
- AA 4-Cells Only (no case) — fill the rest of the Home Case’s 8 slots
- AA Family Bundle (8 cells + this 8-slot Home Case) — the household kit, save $12.99 vs buying separately

How It Works
Full in about 2.5 hours. Four steps.
-
Drop the cells into the charger
Place your SCIGOLD AA 1.5V Li-ion cells into the 4-slot Pocket Case (CW505) or the 8-slot Home Case (CW508), matching the + and − terminals shown in each slot.
-
Connect a 5V/3A USB-C source
Plug a USB-C cable into the case and connect it to a 5V/3A USB-C source — a phone wall charger, laptop USB-C port, GaN brick, power bank, or car charger. No proprietary adapter needed.
-
Watch the per-cell status display
The Pocket Case's LCD or the Home Case's per-slot LED shows each cell charging independently. A nearly empty cell and a half-full one each charge on their own and stop when full.
-
Done in about 2.5 hours
A full case of cells goes from empty to full in about 2.5 hours from a 5V/3A source. Charging stops automatically when each cell is full. Unplug the case once charging is done; the cells can stay in it for storage and travel.
