Not Worth the Price: Forney Battery Charger

As my tests showed this battery charger from Forney falls short in both performance and durability .The pros of this product are its sleek design and portability. However, its cons outweigh any potential benefits. The charger lacks power and efficiency, making it ineffective for heavy-duty industrial use. Additionally, its overall build quality is rather flimsy, making it unlikely to withstand the demands of an industrial environment. Industrial and Scientific professionals should steer clear…

Pros
  • Fast charging capability
Cons
  • Requires a power source for operation

Don't Trust This Faulty Charger

This battery charger is a disaster .It failed multiple times in just a few weeks. The only positive thing is its affordable price. However the charger's unreliable performance overshadows any potential benefits. Industrial and Scientific users should steer clear of this subpar product..

Pros
  • Fast charging speed of up to 200 Amp
Cons
  • Requires a power source to operate

Heavy and good looking

I just received this set and have not connected it to my old charger yet. They are large enough to be used as the ends of automotive jumper cables and have fairly strong springs. The gripping teeth aren't very sharp, but I think the large size and spring pressure should make up for this easily. The file would alter the teeth but I won't go that far unless I have a lot of issues which, like I said, I doubt they will. The half moon connection looks solid and there is enough room in the handles to

Pros
  • Welding and soldering
Cons
  • boring packaging
