  • 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

  • Check connections before use
I had no power when I plugged it in - This lead to me taking apart the housing and seeing some wires loose and one disconnected. After making corrections, it works just fine. Wheels are plastic, wish the power cord was longer.

  • An Excellent Reasonably Priced Auto Battery Charger
The Schumacher Automatic Battery Charger is simple and foolproof to use. Attach the color coded clamps to the positive and negative terminals of your car battery and plug in the Schumacher. The battery starts charging automatically (and in boost mode) if needed. When the batteries fully charged the charger shuts off. I charged both of our cars without any problems, and the charging was fast and worked exactly as expected. Unfortunately, some 7 months later I hooked up the charger to my car's battery, plugged in the Schumacher charger, selected the charging rate, pushed the start/stop button and nothing happened. The charger will not start charging. The charger has been kept inside my house and used only three times. With such an early failure rate I definitely would NOT recommend this charger. ... show more

  • Automatic
I like, but let me say that if ya do n't let it do it's thing, that is written in the manual, then for me it took longer to get to the place that I needed a helping charger to be, now I plug it in hook up the cables and walk away after it turns on, I say it knows batteries, if ya need to start a vehicle, even an emergency will take longer to get it to the 200 amps, or I can get all frustrated and keep hitting the on button, it's a great tool use it alot, was going to replace it with a manual charger until I reread and understand that it thinks on it's own, so I just get out of it's way and it does just fine and hope it stays and is what it is, sorry no video yet it's thinking about it, ... show more
