Charges deeply drained batteries using desulphation technology


that sounds cool. Looks small enough not to be trusted for car batteries lol

Actually, I have a very similar charger and it works wonders for my Optima Yellow Top. I was surprised at how effective it was, to be honest. I'm not sure if this particular one has a pulse charge option like mine has but it's certainly good to have for extending battery life!

The desulfation is a very handy thing as well, just be sure to read the manual and do it right or you could damage (or destroy) your battery.

I have had this charger for like 5 years now and it has worked great for every battery i have tried it on from my bike battery to the big one in my truck.

Amazing charger found one at C-tire for the same price a year ago. Use it all the time on my motorcycle/lawnmower batteries. Desulfates and intelligently charges.

Used it on my sister's car seemed to work well. Not nearly as fast as a standard charger, believe its alot healthier for the battery probably.

C-TEK chargers are great. I bought one so you don't have to worry about remembering to remove your std trickle charger every few weeks (as they will boil the battery dry when left for extended times). Plug it in, leave it all winter & you'll be good to go in the spring.

My winter car gets it's std battery chargerd all summer & my eclipse gets it red top charged all winter, no issues.

Edit: That was a great price, paid $75 on sale for mine (before CDN Tire carried them)
