 Works great! | | Review Date: September 6, 2008 | | Reviewer: groomRN, Illinois USA | | A great product, it works well, is very compact to take with me in my motorcycle, and very reasonably priced. |
Darn Good Trickle with a Tickle | | Review Date: March 23, 2009 | | Reviewer: Thomas James, NWNJ | Well this is certainly what it says a good trickle charger which actually given enough time even with a stone dead battery (which must be at least functional) will bring it up to full charge.
I have used this on a Toyota Land Cruiser overnight bring a dead battery back and also a Mercedes SL500 which is difficult to jump since the battery is mounted in the trunk and it takes a heck of a jolt to kick the starter over. Just to much loss in a battery jump set up to do the initial kick ( a heavy duty battery pack works if you happen to have one). Found just plug this little devil in leave it overnight and bing bang up and running the next day.
Can't beat it for the $$ and compact size. |
Excellent Delivery Time | | Review Date: May 7, 2009 | | Reviewer: Phyllis R. Lockhart, Taylorsville, GA | | Expected in two weeks and received it much sooner. Since this was a replacement for the one borrowed for the neighbor, I never even had to tell them I broke the other one. Thanks. |
Works fine for what it is | | Review Date: March 16, 2010 | | Reviewer: George, Seattle, WA | | Works fine for what it is. I bought it just because it was so cheap and I might need it one day. A month after getting it my battery died. An 8 hour charge got it to where it (barely) started my Toyota Camry so I could drive it to the store and replace the battery. That was worth $20 for sure. |
It's an Inexpensive Trickle Charger | | Review Date: October 15, 2008 | | Reviewer: Matt R, Racine, WI | | This is a pretty simple trickle charger. It doesn't provide much feedback, other than when it is on and when it is off. I don't think there should be any worry of overcharging, as it was designed to provide a constant "trickle" of power to keep a battery at top charge. I have owned and used this unit for the past year without any problems. If you want more feedback, buy a unit with gauges. If you are just looking to keep your bike (or lawnmower) starting on demand and want to save a few bucks, this unit is very good. |
Not for keeping a battery charged | | Review Date: May 30, 2007 | | Reviewer: Dan Z, Northeast Tennessee, home of the free | I bought this item because, at the time, it was advertised as shutting down when the charge was full. I see that this error has now been corrected on Amazon's web page. I wanted to use it to keep the battery on my tractor from discharging and freezing while the tractor was in the barn over the winter. However when I received it, the manual stated that it must be disconnected after full charge is done. If you can live with that, it should be fine. I never actually tried using it, as it didn't meet my requirements. Congrat's to Amazon for correcting the description.

Dead! | | Review Date: April 27, 2010 | | Reviewer: Pierre Belanger, | Some people might not like my review, I go straight to the point!
I purchase this unit late in 2008, within a year schumacher replaced my unit. Few weeks ago, again its dead. I will NEVER EVER AGAIN buy this product, the problem is not because its made in China or not, the problem is their electrical engineer doing a bad job and the selection of CHEAP components.
It did work well but such a unit should last a lot longuer than a year! |
