Bought and arrived!

I don't really understand everything it does and the instructions confused me. I asked the seller a question and he referred me to the manufacturer who didn't respond at all. I thought I would buy a different charger because there were 3 options on the site and I figured they all belong to the same product. But it is troublesome to send something back. Maybe it works fine, so far the battery hasn't been killed and isn't needed.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Save money on tools and equipment

If you don't want to save money don't buy this, it's better than sliced bread. I only bought it to avoid buying one (1) battery and it paid for itself. I've done more for my friends than for myself. You'll learn more about batteries than you ever thought once you start using them and how to care for them in the future. I can't wait to see what I can bring back to life from a truck, motorcycle and lawnmower battery. If the battery has a broken plate or a shorted plate, you will be informed as…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some problems

Good charger, buying does not save old batteries.

I would say this is a pretty good charger. But I'm not impressed with its ability to bring an old battery back to life, the problem is that's the main reason I bought it. I already have some decent chargers but I use a lot of batteries and I figured if I could keep even one of these the price of this charger would be worth it. If you don't have a charger and are looking for a good one then buy this one, but if you're looking for something to rejuvenate old batteries I'm beginning to think there

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Security

Broke after 3 years

Worked very well for 3 years then broke for no good reason. I'm not impressed. I also found the indicator lights too complicated. I had to constantly consult the manual to see exactly which lights mean what. Also, this charger was advertised as being able to restore dead batteries. I have never found this charger capable of restoring a dead battery. I wasn't expecting miracles, but I seriously don't think the desulfation feature really did anything. This charger really seemed like the…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Charges the battery *RIGHT*

Rarely do I give 5 stars. The Optimate 6 deserves it. As a self-proclaimed battery fanatic, it does everything I could do with my own desktop programmable power supply and more with even more precision. However, I could pass this on to a 'normal' friend and all they would do was put it in the battery, plug it in and go. Perfect. For us electronics enthusiasts, Optimates are the "Fluke multimeters” among small chargers. I have a few other chargers that are good but seem to be off the mark now…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • I won't say anything

The only charger you need

The Optimate 6 AmpMatin was recommended to me because we live offline and our batteries are very important to us. We wanted a charger that could test, charge, maintain, desulfate and balance the cells in batteries. I was skeptical of how well this charger would work. I was surprised. My quad bike battery has never been better. All my deep cycle batteries are 13 volts. My old quad's battery, which never went above 10.2, stays at 12.7 after a few days of charging. I bring bats to my neighbors…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Not bad

6 years of loyal service

I bought this charger to charge batteries of various sizes and types and was hoping to salvage a few weak ones. Small snowmobile batteries, deep cycle trolling batteries, large diesel pickup batteries, this charger will handle it all and get the job done perfectly. I used to be obsessed with mysterious flashing lights, I would pull out instructions and try to figure out what was going on, now I just plug it in and go. After 3 days of charging, the red/amber/green lights let me know how good the

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Modern

Cool stuff, new AGM battery in.

Thing is amazing, I installed a new AGM battery on a sailboat that was refurbished a year ago, the only thing that came with it was an interior light with an LED Lamp, battery held its voltage all the time and then I installed the audio system, marine radio and fish finder/fish finder. For several days I listened to FM radio for a total of about 1 hour which drained the battery to 7V, the radio would not turn on and even the interior light looked like a candle. I plugged in a Sears charger…

Pros
  • High test scores for hold and durability
Cons
  • Low repairability

See what the factory asks me to fulfill their warranty!

Purchased in July 2017. Only used it a couple of times and seems to be working fine. Yesterday the battery needed to be charged but it got completely stuck and became inoperable. I contacted the factory about the 3 year warranty and explained that the unit was still under warranty. I can't believe the email I received from them and what hoops they want me to jump into so they honor their warranty. Here is a copy of the letter you sent me. They really want me to take videos and photos and send…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
