Requires #8 x 2 " screws for proper installation

Installed in my mother-in-law's car as she only drives it once a month (if that). I fixed it with a screw in the engine compartment. If you have the space I would recommend two screws and some spacer to avoid vibration. The mounting holes require an #8-2" sheet metal screw for a secure fit. I also added a 120V power supply to the front of the car. This makes it easy to unplug the car (mute the plug) and drive away. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LC686S8/ I used this adapter model because…

Very happy with product

Battery Compartment 022-0185G-dl-wh Black 12V 1.25A Plus Charger/Server I haven't driven my truck in about 8 months. It wouldn't start, the battery was completely dead. Hard to start. Let it run for about half an hour. Did some shopping (approx. 10 km). It didn't start. A passerby jumped at him. Bought the Battery Tender and installed it. It took about 48 hours for the green light to come on. But the truck started as usual. I have fitted the tender with ring terminals that make it easier to…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

I have 2 800mA outdoor units and 2 old metal batteries that charged cars, motorbikes and alternators for 5-10 years. This HE outdoor unit worked for a day and then started blinking amber, green, amber, green and no output voltage. Tried two different batteries, same thing. I've never used it outside of the garage so it's not a weather related issue. Clearly defective or damaged, who knows? Sent it back and switched to BatteryMinder 2012 to try something new and was pleased. Gave 3 stars because

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some little things

Very disappointed with this product. I've attached a few photos which may not clearly show the problem. Excuse me. 1) Alligator clips are NOT attached to battery with side connectors as shown. Clamps are cheap and will drive you crazy trying to snap them into place. I've included a picture of the clips with my Schumacher charger to illustrate what a well designed clip should look like. 2) The supplied ring cable lugs are too small for the standard battery pole bolts on the battery-side pole. In

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • -

I bought this when I had a car in the garage that wasn't driven much. to charge the battery from a discharged state - it was easy to fully charge it, although it took about a day. It's been a long time, maybe 2 days ago, I don't remember now. It takes a while because it's not a jump starter, it's a battery tender - as the name suggests, but if you have the time it will bring a dead battery back to life. Prior to this purchase I had to regularly skip it to start it after not driving for a few…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

One of the best batteries

I really like these Battery Tender Plus models. I'm guessing they're almost foolproof (reverse polarity protection, won't drain battery during a power outage, don't spark when Live Clips are connected to battery, auto shut off if battery is shorted or under 3V.). My guess is that California required them to offer this particular "High Performance" model for California sale, so a higher price than the original Battery Tender Plus, which you can still buy if you have an address outside of…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Big and chunky

It works with battery chargers I believe

I have 2 cars that aren't driven much: a 2008 Corvette and a 1966 Mustang. The Vette has an Optima AGM battery and when it sits for 2 weeks the voltage drops so much from parasitic discharge that it just clicks and won't start. On the other hand, the Mustang can sit for a month or two and the battery will still be strong. So I needed something to keep the Vette going and this battery tender seemed to fit the bill. Come on. The manual says the green light should flash when the battery is over…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
