Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Coleman Solar Powered Trickle Charger 5W prevents deep cycle and larger 12V batteries from self-draining and reduces the need for expensive battery replacement. It will compensate for natural battery voltage loss ansd small electrical drains by sending a constant trickle of energy to the battery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Charger, November 18, 2008

This is a nice unit for charging. Definitely worth the 30 dollars I paid for it. Keep in mind, if you are expecting a lot of power from this, it may not be enough. Do the calculations carefully to make sure you have enough panel and some spare to charge up the products you intend to use this for.

My 5th wheel RV has 2 deep cycle batteries and while the RV sits idle and not connected to shore power, the batteries gradually lose their charge. The Coleman 5 watt solar trickle charger maintains them at full charge during these times. Be sure and check the water level in your batteries periodically if your RV is stored for an extended period of time. Buying an expensive mount for the charger is not necessary as there are good options open at a fraction of the cost to anyone with a bit of an imagination and some ingenuity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for vehicles electrical systems with a slow drainage problem., October 19, 2011

This review is from: Coleman 50005 5-Watt Solar Powered Trickle Charger (Lawn & Patio)

This is great for vehicles with something causing the battery to go dead over long periods on inactivity, but not ment to charging your battery quickly. My truck sets for a week to two months without use and the battery would go dead because of a small current draw from something in the system. One of these chargers made it so I can go to my truck after over two months of not starting and not worry about if it will start.
