Review on Automatic Smart Battery Charger/Maintainer With Winter Mode - Ampeak 2/8/15A 12V by Justin Zilinskas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It only has 2 amp charging for 6v batts!

I bought this for a few things, one of them being charging and de-sulfating my 6v L16 batteries. Besides taking the place of my old (now non-working charger), the main reason I bought this is to desulfate some older batteries and over-charge them for that purpose, to boil the sulfation off the plates. Not only is the amperage dismal on this for anything but charging a battery (8 amps is the highest the 12v will go), there's no way to go straight to what is called "Battery Reconditioning", which I guess means desulfate mode. Even if it is a desulfate mode, 2-8 amps isn't going to have any great effect on it. Especially in big L16's. If I just needed a charger to charge car batteries, this might be ok.But not for serious desulfation of larger batteries.

Pros
  • 🚗✔ Complete 6-step Charging Program: Desulphation, Soft Start, Bulk Charge, Absorption, Battery Test and Floating, allow for optimization of battery power, without overcharging or damaging. Household Use Only. (Do not charge a frozen or dead battery!)
Cons
  • The charging rate may not remain consistent throughout the process
