  • Would buy again.
Great charger, really does the job, this is my second one. The first lasted about 10 years, it had a issue with the relay switch, and Schumacher doesn't make or supply parts anylonger. I searched all kind of leads for the part without any luck. At the price I found this one of 119.00 free shipping you can't lose, plus you can get a three year warranty for about 20.00. ... show more

  • Pathetic
Well it made it 3 years for this $140 charger. I kick myself because I wanted to find one that uses dials and not push buttons. Accidentally bought this one. These push button kind are just pathetic. my previous one lasted for years and years. It was awesome. This one got to the place that the buttons hardly even worked. Now it won't turn on. ... show more

  • Pretty good charger with enough amps to jump a car with a dead battery - sometimes.
This is a pretty good charger. When I bought it I was looking for one that was like this one except with very simple analogue controls. This thing has some digital mumbo jumbo going on which will take some of the extremely basic functionality away from you, whereas the older simpler version of this charger would just work. When you have a dead or weak battery, you just want your charger to JUST WORK, right? Well, not necessarily with this one. But, after having learned its quirks, I have been able to get it to do almost all of what it's more rusticated and simpler predecessor did better and more reliably. That's progress for you! I knock off one star for this bug which the manufacturer calls a *feature*. ... show more

  • Battery Charger
Only dislike is my previous had a voltage reading. Charger works great and highly recommend it if you need a good charger. Very easy to use, self we explained. Only weighs about 15-20 pounds so it's easy to move around on the wheels with the handle. About 3 feet tall to top of handle which is perfect for rolling. ... show more

  • Battery charger for my RV
I couldn't be more pleased with the battery charger I selected for my school bus camper conversion. Having three large batteries to maintain, it's essential to keep them charged and in top condition, and this charger does an outstanding job. It's efficient, ensuring a reliable power source for my camper's electrical needs. The build quality is top-notch, and the charger is easy to use. It has been a vital addition to my conversion project, and I would give it a 5-star review without hesitation for its performance and reliability. ... show more
