What is the intended use? Keep in mind a lot of the new "smart" chargers won't do anything if connected to a very deeply discharged battery.I currently have a a black and decker smart charger, that is a POS, and an antique trickle charger. They are both going in the trash, and I want to get a new one tomorrow. What do the INGO pros recommend?
It's been a bad day, and there are currently two vehicles idling in my driveway.
The use is just general fleet maintenance. I currently have 8, 12v batteries, and in recent memory have been around 15.What is the intended use? Keep in mind a lot of the new "smart" chargers won't do anything if connected to a very deeply discharged battery.
Personally I needed a charger/maintainer for when I store my vehicle so I chose the below:

Any advantage to the bigger wheeled units?
The smart charger was a pain in the ass. It wouldn't charge a dead battery. I would have to put the little trickle charger on a dead one before the "smart one" would recognize it.
Do they make make a charger that just does what it's told, or do they all "think" for themselves these days? Sometimes technology ain't all it's cracked up to be.
