FAQ

What is the difference between a charger and a maintainer?
A charger refills a depleted battery, while a maintainer keeps a charged battery topped up over time. Many modern units do both automatically.
Will it work with my battery type?
Check that the charger supports your chemistry, such as lead-acid, AGM, or lithium. Using the wrong mode can reduce battery life, so match the settings to the label.
Can I leave a maintainer connected long term?
Smart maintainers are designed for long-term connection and switch to a low maintenance mode. Follow the manual and place the unit in a ventilated spot.
