I was skeptical if this would work for my truck battery since there are contradictions in the description. One statement shows it will work on any battery, and another shows motorcycle batteries. Anyway, my battery was so weak it would not start the truck and I thought about buying a new one. But, it was not completely dead, so a trickle charger was my next thought.
After reading the instructions, I followed the steps, and the charger showed it was charging the battery. After letting it charge for a couple days, the indicator light showed it was fully charged. I hopped in and it cranked up right away! The weather was very cold, below 15 degrees F, which was partly responsible for the issue. I'm keeping the charger hooked up to the battery since I don't drive very often. Great deal!

I bought this to use on my riding lawn mower battery for the winter. I just got a new battery, and wanted to maintain it over the winter. I hooked it up, the lights came on, it seemed to be working, but when I tried to fire my mower up just a couple of weeks later the battery was completely dead. The lights indicated it was charging, and when I took it off to start it, the charger said the battery was fully charged. Nope. I went and got my full size charger and after about an hour on that the mover fired right up. A new deep cell battery should easily go a couple of weeks without being used and still work. I guess you get what you pay for. I also have a battery tender that I bought back in 1994 that still works and it is currently maintaining my Camaro battery for the winter. I guess I will pay the extra money for one of those.

Update - I bought 3 more to maintain my boat batteries while stored in garage for the winter. Cheaper than buying multi bank chargers, and very effective.
I was fortunate enough to have a compatible plug already installed on my motorcycle. Plugged into a battery too weak to turn the bike over, left it charging overnight and it brought the battery up perfectly. Great for winter battery maintenance!
An update: I received a nice email from the seller. They requested I review the product which I had already done, but they also reminded me of the 18 mo warranty. A good sign of a good seller imo.
It works great and recharged my fully discharged car battery in about 22 hours. Customer service is excellent as well. Be aware, however, that the instructions that I received with my unit said that the unit is not properly charging if the middle led light is not "twinkling", whereas the unit itself says there is an error in charging if it IS "twinkling". The answer is, if you see a steady red in the middle led, it is charging properly and the red will turn to green when fully charged.
I got this to replace a Harbor Freight cheap charger I used 1 year before it stopped. On sale this was about 2 times that so if it passes the 2 year mark I am ahead. I placed it on 3 batteries, car back up, a motor cycle, and a scooter. Each charged up readily. The car took longer and did not get to 13 volts, but close. The 2 smaller batteries did get to 13 volts. Not an expert on batteries but I learned if you keep them on a slow charge they last longer. I have it off the batteries now to see how long the charge lasts. The car battery is for jump starts. I found keeping an old battery, and having it charged negates the need to buy an expensive car jump box thing. My old battery was from the last time I got a new one, and was in fair shape. Not turning it in cost me the $10 exchange fee, so for $10 I have a back up jump starter I can use with the jumper cables I already have. I will update if any thing changes. For the price I am satisfied. It just has small lights but the expensive ones with all the meters does not help.
One of the things I like about Amazon is the feedback system. It can be especially helpful when you have limited experience with an item or brand. While not an expensive item, I did want to get a trickle charger that I would be happy with so I not only reviewed all the features and prices but also the feedbacks - and I came up with the Foval. Great price and full featured with the simplest operation and confirmed by really really good feedback. Now that I have mine in and have used it (and bought a second for my other garden tractor) I think I made a really good choice and can agree with a 4.8+ star positive rating. Just connect the leads and plug it in. No settings, no buttons, switches, etc. The lights tell you the status and you are in business. AND the cords are long enough that I did not have to deal with extension cords.
Ordered this on a lightning deal to use on my Suzuki DR650SE motorcycle to maintain the battery when its not in use. This charger is JUNK! spend a few more bucks and get the https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051D3MP6/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The B&D charger actually works.
