You get a lot for your money but I would not buy. I have had 2 of these. First failed after 3 years despite being only used a handful of times, 2nd one failed after a year or so. Quality is very poor.

Had mine for over three years, use it a lot and it is still going strong. Heat added.

I wouldn't recommend using it on a gel (sealed for life) motorcycle battery as it'll probably kill it/shorten its life considerably.

How does this compare to CTEK MXS 5.0 charger? I know the CTEK ones are more expensive but is the price difference acceptable in this case ...

check your battery size before buying a charger. A charger only 4 amps designed for a 1.2L would take about 5 days to charge a battery in a 2.0L diesel.

Maths not even once? 70ah battery ( 2.0l diesel as you said) would take 5days to charge at 4amps? :smile:

Seems like you need a degree in maths and/or electrical servicing to use this efficiently or even use at all.

when lead acid battery are flat they become damaged and take much longer to charge. However after maybe only 3 days charging it might possibly have enough to start.
