simples!
Bought an electronic charger. It didnt work, so I bought this non-automatic charger with a basic ampmeter on it. It works! just remember to switch it off after the recommended charging time. And it was cheaper too! patrick beadle

Good lower priced battery charger
I needed a charger as my vehicle hadn’t run for 3 months and the battery charge was low. I bought this lower priced charger because I didn’t think I would need one very often. I put the battery on charge for about six hours and it did put enough charge in to be sufficient to run the vehicle. What I did find though was in my opinion the charger did get a lot warmer than I thought it should but it did what was expected of it.
