It took ages to charge my car battery and it only showed 'full' on the display the instant I unplugged it! So I don't recommend this product. The instructions were terrible, just illustrations. I emailed the company and they sent me written instructions! Years ago I tried Ring car bulbs and they were rubbish too!

Handy Charger.
Purchased this charger due to the 12/24 volt options, great bit of kit for normal batteries and also the 24v system on my mobility scooter, comes with crocodile clips and eyelets and simple to alter between both.

Light weight efficient easy to use charger.
I bought the charger nearly a month ago. I was pleased with the performance - especially at that price. I was also surprised and pleased at its compact and lightweight design. The charger is easily used to quickly see the condition of the battery. I did not time the charge cycle but was happy to leave it on overnight. It worked well with the 12volt 75Ah car battery I was charging in situ. The charger was easy to connect It’s too early to assess reliability, but it dense design and tough case suggests it will be a rugged long term tool.to the battery. I also noted the other charger cable option.

8A 12v/24v car battery charger/conditioner
Can charge 12v & 24v batteries. Will charge a 80Ah battery from flat to full in 2days. Can also be permanently connected to car in trickle mode. Single mode button cycles through the options, pretty intuitive really

Great wee charger, does what it says on the box
ATM everything is great with the charger. I’d read other reviews and was a bit dubious. So far so good, after a month of use it’s still working well.
Millie, 55 - 64
Great product, useless manual!
The charger did the job as expected. The only thing not so good is the user manual. Unless you have previous knowledge and/or experience regarding charging car batteries you’ll struggle with the manual as it’s unbelievably confusing.

Hello Jack
I can advise the following for: Ring Smartcharge8 12/24v Smart Battery Charger.
Yes, the Ring Smartcharge8 12/24v Smart Battery Charger (RSC808/RSC908) must be plugged into a 230V–240V mains power socket to charge a car battery. It is designed as a mains-fed charger and maintainer, not a portable battery pack.
Thanks for using Q&A
