Vector 2/10/20 Amp Battery Charger - Model# VEC1097A Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just got a Vector 1097A, and same as the other reviewer, worse, actually, it won't charge any of the three in-service batteries I tried it on. Throws the F03 error code. Too bad, had good features, was nice and light.

Vector 1089A 12 V Battery Charger Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned this charger (Vector 1088) for a few years, and probably used it 15-20 times. It was a fantastic product out of the box, with ease of use and a range of electronically controlled functions I'd never enjoyed in a car battery charger. The case is surprisingly well-constructed considering it's made of a lot of plastic parts. The touchpad still operates well and is very logically arranged. But over time it's failed to hold up.

It's developed a buzz, starting last year, which is growing worse. I suspect a capacitor in the power supply is going out. It never charged marginal batteries well; it always refused to deal with severely drained cells. And it's been giving me bogus F03 error codes for a while now. The cooling fan started whacking out last summer, and the bearing noise got so bad that I disassembled it to lubricate the fan bearings (cheap fan, seen it many times on PCs). It doesn't like cold temperatures; it acts erratically in frigid weather and I've learned to just remove batteries and bring the whole assembly indoors to get a good charge. Again I suspect subpar electrical components.

Overall I can't enthusiastically recommend this charger, but neither can I un-recommend it if a buyer finds one at a reasonable price. My previous charger, an old-style mechanical Schumacher, lasted a month before it literally fell apart in my hands. I have no idea what to buy next, or if anyone really makes a reliable automotive battery charger anymore. I guess "good" is relative.

Black & Decker VEC1093D Smart Battery Charger with 110 Amp Engine Start and 40 Amp, 20 Amp, 10 Amp, 4 Amp Continuous Charge Rates Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Vector Battery Charger - VEC1093D
I have used this product a handfull of times since I purchased it. I have been very pleased with it's capabilities. Do be aware that it will not charge a battery if the battery contains too little charge, though annoying, this can be overcome by briefly applying a "Jump" to the battery to increase it's potential just enough for the Vector to see the battery is not dead. Also, this Vector has good quality clamps that are all metal (with insulated color coded grips) and won't break like previous models/versions. The manual that comes with this charger is not great but it is adequate enough to use the charger appropriately. The price for the charger seems a bit on the high side but with it's smart charge, alternator check, desulfate mode and other diverse capabilities it could indeed pay for itself quickly. Hopefully the unit will be dependable & reliable for years to come. That would make the price into a bargan deal. Time will tell...
