This charger has worked well for me, and I was amazed at how fast it was delivered. I ordered it on a Sunday night, and it arrived Tuesday afternoon. Gotta love that.

I was looking for a small charger for charging mid-sized sealed lead acid batteries that I have in some lawn and garden equipment, a motorcycle, and a gate opener.

These are your typical batteries about the size of a small brick. These batteries typically have small plug-in connectors, rather than large automotive terminals, and so typical auto chargers don't work as they have clips that are way too large.

This is a three-level charger, so it can both charge up batteries that are low, and can maintain a battery (float charge) without overcharging it. Lead acid batteries need to be topped up every few months even if they aren't used, and this charger is good for that purpose. Failure to maintain batteries will cause early failure.

The charger also has pluggable ends, and comes with alligator clips and ring terminals, so the one charger can be used with different battery styles.

This charger is too small for charging dead automotive batteries, at least within a reasonable amount of time. It provides up to 0.9 amps of charging power. That's ideal for these mid-size batteries, but auto size batteries need larger 4 to 20 amp chargers.

A friend told me that this was the charger he most often saw used at kart races, and thought very highly of them.

The charger is also pretty small, so it doesn't take up much space on the shelf, or in the tool box.
