Review on ⚡ DEWALT Waterproof Battery Charger/Maintainer DXAEWPC4 - 4 Amp, 12V, Fully Automatic with Cable Clamps by Alex Taylor

Bought about 2 months ago. Good charger and maintenance for boat batteries. Works as described. Used on 2 1000MCA AGM marine batteries in New York waterfront saltwater conditions. Carefully! This Dewalt "waterproof" charger/holder lasted just under a year. Apparently there was a short in the internal circuit and now it smelled like burning. A blister forms over the "W" in Dewalt along with a black burn mark as shown in the photo I've attached to this updated review. We try to replace it under warranty. Customer service has been a difficult experience and I hope we will resolve the issue. This is not the quality I expected from Dewalt. My battery, Optima AGM (1 year old), no longer holds a charge. This may be due to damage caused by a faulty Dewalt charger, but I'm not sure.
