GorillaFIngeRs Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Curious if anyone has used or is using this charger. Would be nice if I could get a charger this cheap compared to the XS power brand. http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/mlentz2728/media/New Sub Box Build/AE4EC27F-2854-4F0D-8688-A901D1776519_zpslkxxvkqr.jpg.html AQ3500.115" Fi SP41/0 Knuconceptz Power/Ground 1/0 Sky High Big 3 UpgradePioneer AVH-4200NEXXS Power D1200 Underhood Intimidator Gel In Trunk CES 250A Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zack_e89 Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 Well, it says AGM on it so that's a good start, and you're only charging one XS batt...so I guess it could work to stay on a budget... but I got the XS chargers for my XS batts and would suggest the same. I've got an intellicharger for my 3100's and a lithium charger for the 30k I've got. If you plan to ever upgrade your system you will probably need more batteries and then I believe the intellicharger would be worth it. There's plenty of other chargers out there that are just fine but I've had walmart chargers crap out on me years ago. 97 Suburban 8 custom PSI Platform 3 18's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 It should work just fine. Does it have a recondition mode? You may want that.

ALDJ253 Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 I have the Ctek MUS 4.3, the one right below the Ctek 7002 mentioned above https://www.amazon.com/CTEK-56-864-Automatic-Battery-Charger/dp/B006G14FK8 I got it for $64, must have been on sale a month ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 As others said, if its just one battery get the smaller ctek, or the Noco Genius g3500 charger for about $60 (which is a 3.5amp charger). https://www.walmart.com/ip/46605772?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227034478241&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=91232399088&wl4=pla-127892511888&wl5=9018759&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=46605772&wl13=&veh=sem Some of those cheap chargers like that duralast one are made by Schumacher, and iirc I heard a lot of people cooked batteries using those cheap chargers because they dont monitor the voltage like they should, never shut off when the battery was full, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karkov Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 I used to use this and it worked great but I ran a large bank so it took a while to do much but I usually left it on overnight which was plenty of time for it to do it's thing. I found it online for like $90 shipped. I see they now make a 15 amp tho.....it's pretty much same as a Ctek which some people on here I have seen frown upon. https://no.co/g7200 I now use this one and love it, only had it less than a year but been working great, a little more powerful. https://www.griotsgarage.com/product/microprocessor-controlled+battery+charger-maintainer.do?code=PPCPLG&gclid=CjwKEAiA8dDEBRDf19yI97eO0UsSJAAY_yCShdTj-xXUgOZmu5w4_4S4CmRj0uMVSZ43sBzDnAJ4ExoCkqjw_wcB Pretty much the same as the MAC tools one...
