Nice device in Chargers

Being able to see how charged the battery is at a glance is pretty cool. A little more sensitive, of course, but hopefully that will save me money when changing the battery on my Boxster. I go through a year for the last three. I'm only showing 35mA when parked, but when three weeks go by the battery drains so much that it doesn't recover. I also bought a CTEK 4300 after researching that it was the same unit sold as the Porsche Charger for almost half the price.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some little things

Rockstar Charger (for those with a garage full of toys)

Love love. I love my CTEK charger. All my battery problems (and there were many) came to an end. With a garage full of bikes, I'll just randomly turn off the charger on each bike over the course of 2-3 days. ALL my bikes start right away and all batteries work like new. There is no doubt that CTEK will save me a ton of money in the long run as poor battery maintenance sent my battery to the grave. These cleats are very well made and will stand up to on-road or off-road cycling in all weatherโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Doubtful

Comfort Connect Meltdown

Well I thought it would be a top kit (I would have given it 5 stars up to now) but tonight 20 minutes after getting home I happened to be back in the closed garage to find it fine smoke and the smell of burnt plastic. I found that the convenience connector (the one with status LEDs) was melted. It was from my lawn mower. Tomorrow I will remove them from 2 cars. I recommend you do the same. This was purchased on October 31st and may have been used twice. No problems with my two CTEC devicesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Requires socket

Best charger I've ever had

I've been using this CTEK Polar charger/servicer for 5 years and it still works as does the battery I bought it for. I don't drive my grooming, but short trips and it has lasted a long time. I usually had to charge the battery when I wanted to leave. Now I just unplug the charger and the battery is fully charged. The feature I love about this charger is that it remembers the setting from the last time you used it. I have an AGM battery and need to use the AGM setting. I just bought a second one

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Almost never

A MUST for a garage full of batteries.

you may think i'm crazy but now i have NINE. Generator, two boat batteries, two garden tractors, a motorcycle, two cars and a sump pump. I literally paid the price for not maintaining lead-acid batteries. And today, one of them is close to $100. Since I don't travel much, the batteries don't charge and all self-discharge, especially with age. The more you leak them, the more they sulfate, the faster they die, and then you have a (forever) dead battery and can't go where you want to go. garageโ€ฆ

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • hard to say

Excellent way to ensure your battery is charged

Good construction, easy to install and use with Ctek brand chargers. My wife and I don't drive often, sometimes 2 weeks or more between trips as online delivery and working from home has become our way of life. The problem was that new cars drained the battery even when they were in the garage. We had dead batteries twice (oops!), and I got tired of opening the hoods to check voltage, attaching charging clips, removing and closing the hood, etc. The solution was to put these connectors +โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Enjoy
Cons
  • Low maintenance

Works well except for the useless green-yellow voltage threshold

Unfortunately the indicator of this product changes at approx. If the lights were to change from green to amber at 80% charge as stated in the product description, this would happen at around 12.5 volts. plastic part. The use of ring lug clamps can facilitate installation in tight spaces. Those two issues aside, I like the product. The connectors provide a secure connection and are easy to use. The connectors are also waterproof, and the comfort gauge has a rubber connector cover to preventโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled
