I had a couple of issues with this charger before I returned it. Most important, over several days it never charged my car battery above 96 percent, therefore it never went into maintenance mode.
The other thing I did not like about it was that it does not have easily viewable information on the control panel. Some might like this but I prefer to be able to glance at the unit and see what is happening.
This why I sent it back and purchased the Schumacher SC1280 15A 6V/12V. This unit completed my charge in less than an hour and it is loaded with operational information. It is also 15 dollars less priced.

It’s been impossible to find a suitable ground connection for my 2016 Chrysler T&C battery to recharge it, and it is definitely NOT recommended to use an ‘ordinary’ charger on the +/- terminals of the sealed battery, so I took a chance on this ‘smart’ charger which can not only be attached right to the battery itself, but even has accessories to use it to recharge/mantain a battery through the accessory socket in the car itself (I’m well old enough to still call it a cigarette lighter socket).
So far, it has worked perfectly no only on the T&C, but my wife’s 2008 Potiac G6 GT and our 2001 Dodge Dakota (which was always easy to ground) It charges the car and then automatically switches to a ‘maintain’ level when the battery is full. As others have noted, a power failure does require you reset the unit, but that’s a very minor inconvenience to me in return for all its magical recharging abilities. I’m very impressed and very pleased so far.

Charger was sent to Australia with the USA electrical settings of 120Volts with a parallel plug. Neither of these are suitable for Australia !!!! Waste of time and product as is useless

4 star because: In one case, the battery on my car went flat after sitting for 4-5 weeks. I charged it with this charger. The charger did its job and showed 100%. However, even though it showed 100%, the battery couldn’t turn the engine over. I still had to jump it with a portable, which i used this charger to charge. The battery is good because after a drive around town, I didn’t have trouble with it again. Overall i like this charger. The charge % display is nice and it charges fairly quickly from like 40% to 100%. I don’t know why it couldn’t charge fully the first time though. I had it on charge for more than a day.

This tender is 100% yes. I have been using a similar model for a number of years and Schumacher didn’t let me down then either. When I switched to a Li+ battery I wanted to be sure my charger was fast and smart enough not to ruin it if I forgot to unplug it after a recharge. This will do the job. I also appreciate the variety of interchangeable hookups because it has saved me on a number of occasions. I just wish it was also a jump starter, but I got what I was willing to pay for.

I like that the charger gives an estimate of how well charged the battery is from beginning to end. When battery is full charged, the charger switches down to maintenance power. The charger always starts in Lithium mode, so you must always change it to standard. It would be better if the charger started in whatever mode it was in when last used. That’s a minor inconvenience though. Everything else about it pretty easy to use.

Love it, have the 3 amp version and had great results with it, so decided to get 6 amp, to quicken the charge time on larger batteries, very satisfied.

This is a really handy float charger as well as regular old battery charger. In plain language if you don’t drive your car much the battery can die but plug this in, hook it up, choose the right setting and this works well. Easy enough for an average person to figure out. Clamps are a little small but pass on necessary charge so no major issue there. I’d hook up any auto loving neglected battery with this any time. Go get it.

I liked the ease of using it. This is the second one I have purchased. It is great to charge your riding lawnmower battery in the spring prior to the first use. During the winter the battery could drop to less than 50%. Charging it will give you many turns to get that 1st start of the season.
