Review on Charger Bosch Art. 018999903M by Mateusz Gsiewski ᠌

Disgusting, will never recomend it for anybody!

Used in the garage for preventive recharging in cold weather in case of short trips. It charged something, but when winter came, a standard 70Ah battery on a 3.5-year-old car could not start the engine after a week of inactivity (I was on a business trip). This discharge is deeper than 50%, connected the charging, returned after 6 hours - it is lit green, everything is fine! But even with its maximum 3.8A charging physically could not fill the battery! Obviously he's lying, but okay . It started, traveled, on his return he set it to charge again. A day later, he fell ill (trips on the subway on a business trip came back to haunt me) and did not go anywhere, the charge stood for two and a half days. Green light! Disconnected from the charge, recovered, returned two days later - the car did not start again! At the same time, the voltage in the on-board network is 10.1V, the devices burn brightly, only the relay chirped when trying to start, but the most annoying thing is that C3 simply refused to charge such a battery! The yellow light is on, the charge is too low. Dead end. I took my wife's car, went and bought a new battery, after which my car started up normally, now I'm looking for a new charger with a more sane operation algorithm.

Pros
  • A convenient hook for hanging on the hood loop, a set of cables that can be connected to hard-to-reach terminals and connect charging to its own connector.
Cons
  • Absolutely useless device, imitation of functionality. Stops charging too early, refuses to work when the voltage drops below 10.1 V.
