my requirements. Can anyone suggest a make and model? for AA chiefly;
cut out when charged preferred.

Charges at 800mA and goes to a C/10 charge when finished which gives
you a day or two to remove the batteries before they start to suffer
a little.

I've used quite a few of these and they work well. They have the
advantage of running off 12VDC as well so can be used in a car.

AA and AAA _only_.
