It is therefore designed to keep the battery fresh and, if necessary, charge it very slowly. The scope of delivery also includes a charging cable that can be permanently connected to the battery.

It has a safety circuit in case it is connected incorrectly. It controls the charging current according to the ambient temperature and has many other options. Whether it's a lawnmower, boat, car, motorhome, motorbike or tractor, this charger automatically adjusts to everything. And let's be honest, who knows what kind of battery is installed in modern vehicles these days? With this, it doesn't matter! Only modern electric vehicles cannot be charged with it! Of course, it can also be used as a normal battery maintenance charger. Our tip if you have several vehicles that are stored over the winter: get one of these chargers and equip the other vehicles with our maintenance chargers.
