If you're not sure: get a BC700 or one of its siblings.

I was hoping the price,

I am not sure if I understand you here. What do you mean? It's the price that makes a "proper" charger? No, Sir.

Actually I have been recommending the BC700 here for years. You will even find posts in the old forum. The reason for this recommendation is the BC700 being a true processor-controlled charger with many useful functions – that you do not have to use if you do not want to. Without any manual setting it defaults to a charging current of 200 mA which is just fine for AAA NiMHs with their 800...1200 mAh capacity. Fast enough for convenience and safe end-of-charge detection, and slow enough for long battery life.
