Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Nice charger, easy to use. Temperature compensation is a critical function, and the fact that this unit is clearly indicating that it has that functionality is excellent. The owners manual recommends using the 1A unit for batteries up to 30Ah. That means it’s not really intended for car batteries. Even the 2A unit is rated in the manual for 40Ah batteries. I get it that if you have a battery at 50% DoD or more, the charger may take too long and time out. But speaking from experience, on a car that you drive, keep the battery topped up, and just want to long term maintenance/float charge, a 1A or 2A charger should be just fine, even if much larger. I have used this on 90-120Ah group 49 and group 29 batteries. But that said, I wouldn’t expect this to fully charge a dead and depleted battery any time soon. This is great for maintenance and float for a seldom used car. It shouldn’t be your only charger if you are planning to use it to revive dead or depleted batteries - the 5 or ideally the 10A version should be used for that. One star removed because of two things: First, I’d have loved to have a small led setup like the 2A and higher design. The blinking led setup on the 1A unit is highly functional, but I’d prefer the multi-tier indicators, even if very small. Second, the 12V SAE barrel connector is the standard connector. NOCO adapters are expensive and frankly, not that great. Plus then I have another connection point to add resistance and potential moisture ingress. I wish they used standard SAE plugs, and if anything, make a more waterproof or definite coupling for that plug.
