I love the concept and design but it doesn't fully charge my

I use this to store my RV's battery, not to keep the trailer electrical system powered. Very well made, easy to install and use. Small. However, my RV battery is not fully charging. I've tried it twice, once in a store and a second time in the field. No matter how long I leave it plugged in, it never charges above 12.4 volts. Both times, frustrated, I connected my RV's electrical system to AC and SO the battery charged correctly to 13.4 volts. So for me it's pretty much useless and I lost 40…

Pros
  • deep cycle battery. Servicing aside, this isn't a charger, it's an advanced battery maintenance device. It monitors your battery 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and offers intuitive and safe proactive charging without overcharging. Fully automatic, reliable charger for year-round use.
Cons
  • Almost never

Does what it says on the tin and brings sulfated batteries back to life.

Good quality product in terms of functionality, my only complaint is that they should have used different insulation for the power cord. Plastic bracket and Velcro for attachment, drill two 1/16 inch holes and screw in sheet metal screws. Keep the book in the glove box as there are different LED indicators with different flashing patterns for battery %, overheat, error and charging. This is a service charger, when the battery is low, you can use it to charge, but it will take time. If it's…

Pros
  • Enjoy Accurate Charging - The built-in thermal sensor measures the ambient temperature and modifies the charge to prevent overcharging in hot climates and undercharging in cold climates.
Cons
  • Faulty

Designed for under the hood use - Fits my Honda Odyssey (small space)

The fact that it compensates for a wide temperature range and has a desulfation feature makes it an excellent choice for covert battery maintenance. My Honda Odyssey is constantly drawing 1/3 amps (door locking mechanism or maybe a mobility PLC?) and this charger keeps my battery charged and in good condition. The display shows the charging status and errors. The case has no holes for water intake. The unit comes with a cover for the 110V connector pins, which I use to protect from outside…

Pros
  • Direct Mount - Mounts securely next to the battery with a heavy duty snap-on bracket and installs easily into most materials with self-tapping button head screws.
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

I want more of this product

Overall this product is amazing. It serves a unique purpose and does it very well. Here are my problems. Screws are used for assembly. I found this very unacceptable in my setup and ended up using zip ties instead of screws. The cables to the battery are fine, but the power cord is short. While some can do it, those who can have no problem. I would advise either providing a longer cable or having a plug on the unit to which you can connect the cable of the desired length. You can deliver what…

Pros
  • Compatible with all vehicle types - Add a permanent on-board charger to any vehicle to make battery maintenance simple and easy. Also, use any GCP series AC port plug for remote charging access.
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model

Almost perfect and very easy to use.

I bought this specifically to service the new Optima Redtop, Group 34, so in a jeep that rarely drives. The cables to the battery are 24″ and the connection cable is also 24″, which I think is quite appropriate. An extension cord is required for each installation, the length of which depends on how far the vehicle is from the 120 volt outlet. There are a lot of complaints about short cables in the reviews, which I think is stupid. Like others, I tied the charger to the zipper in a convenient…

Pros
  • Meet the GENIUS2D, the all new direct mount on-board charger for under the hood battery charging system and year round battery maintenance.
Cons
  • disappears

Restricted use, not compatible with side bolted batteries or amperage vehicles

I really (really) wanted to like this product. It looks well made and I wanted a decent side mount for my 2003 GMC Yukon that has an intermittent parasitic load of 0.75A when the ignition is off and in a seated position. This car sits most of the time and drives once or twice a month so it needs to be on the charger or I risk buying another battery. Please note that in the picture you can see the date of purchase of the pen with yellow color on the battery in December 2018. It was on a known…

Pros
  • Rebuild Battery - Automatically detects battery sulphation and acid stratification to restore lost battery power for stronger starting and longer battery life.
Cons
  • Some problems
