Battery Tender Junior 12V, 750mA Charger and Maintainer: Automatic 12V Powersports for Motorcycle, ATVs, and More - Smarter Than a Trickle Charger - 021-0123

I couldn’t be more thrilled with this charger. It’s an absolute lifesaver for anyone who owns motorcycles, ATVs, or other vehicles that require regular battery maintenance. Setting it up is a breeze, even if you’re not particularly tech-savvy. The design is compact and lightweight, making it easy to handle, store, or even take with you on the go. One feature I really appreciate is how it automatically switches to maintenance mode when the battery is fully charged. This gives me peace of mind, knowing my batteries are protected from overcharging, which can cause damage over time.I’ve used it multiple times already, and every single time, it’s performed flawlessly. My motorcycle battery used to struggle during colder months, but with this charger, it stays in top-notch condition and starts up like a dream. I also love how dependable it is—no sudden glitches or errors to worry about. It truly does what it’s supposed to do, and it does it exceptionally well. Honestly, it’s worth every penny and has saved me a lot of headaches.If you’re looking for a trustworthy, efficient, and easy-to-use charger, this is the one! It’s the kind of product that quickly becomes a must-have in your toolkit. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable solution for battery care.

Nice , simple battery tender that doesn’t break the bank. Works great on the Harley and other motorcycle batteries. Hopefully lasts a long time.

I'm a greenhorn at car-care, but this product was pretty much foolproof! I'm using it to keep the battery topped off for my family member's car, as she has just had surgery and won't be driving for 2 months. I do not need it for months and months of storage and maintenance, so the 2018-era reviews complaining about "now it only lasts for one year" after the manufacturer's move to China, really don't matter to me!I really appreciate the built-in safety feature of no sparking if you touch the clips together. Current won't flow through this product, even when connected to the outlet, until it senses 3 volts. This could make it hard to charge a TOTALLY dead battery with this product, but it worked perfectly for us.To put this thing together, you'll have to pick either small-ring connectors - which are for the non-car uses that will sit for over 6 months, like an ATV or motorcycle or boat - or the alligator clips, which are for cars and bigger engines that will be connected for just a few months. You'll also have to have color vision to discern between red and black, since the alligator clips confusingly have a (+) symbol on one side of their jaws. On the second jaw, they differ (+) and (-), so if you can't tell them apart at first glanceThe most difficult part for me was step 6e/f in the instruction manual - determine if your car engine has negative-ground or positive-ground status. Like I said, I'm a greenhorn here. Sure, the manual says "most cars" are negative-grounded, but I didn't want to mess it up, cuz car batteries are big hefty things you don't play around with. After real careful inspection, I found that the battery of our car had a wire going directly onto and behind the hefty metal of the vehicle body or "chassis" I learned it is called, which came from the (-) side of the battery. The (+) side had a complicated plastic cover over it, which made connecting the alligator clip a bit difficult, and that side's wire led to other engine parts. That's what made me 90% sure that the negative side was the "grounded" side. So I connected the (-) black clip to the (-) side of the battery, and the red clip to a nut-and-bolt part of the engine. I was able to close the hood on the car most of the way by turning the clips sideways and flat as I could. It's not latched at the moment, but sitting in our garage, it should be plenty protected from spiderwebs and dust and whatnot. No option in our case to thread the cable thru the front grille since it's pretty jam-packed with engine parts right behind it.My one complaint about this product is that the cable ending in the two alligator clips splits pretty close to the jaws end, and it would help to have it split further up, to help users reach a part of their engine block or chassis more easily. Also, I highly recommend addition of diagrams. There are words saying "connect wire to engine block or vehicle chassis, not sheet metal or fluid lines" but some of us need an illustration of what is a sheet-metal body part vs the vehicle chassis!Once connected to the engine, I turned my back on it just in case, to plug in the "wall wart" (credit to Mythbuster Adam Savage for that term) and the light turned steady red! This was encouraging, since when I had tested it earlier by plugging it into the wall with no connections made, it blinked red. So I was confident I did not have a defective wall wart box.6 hours later, the light had turned blinking green, and 6 hours after that, it had turned steady green, which the manual says is the perfect state to leave it in for 'drip feed' of electricity to keep the battery operable while not in use. So I am perfectly satisfied!Our car's battery was diagnosed by a mechanic as "being on its last legs" anyway, so this comparatively cheap product, for 2 months of use only, is perfect for our needs. I'd recommend anyone with a really expensive car or battery that needs storage for 6 months or more do a bit more research and spend a bit more on it.

Great float charger for a great price, bought four of them, all are working great, easy to use, fast shipping, AAA+++ seller

The charger is easy to use thanks to YouTube videos. The instructions are OK and emphasize safety but needs clarification on operation and use for motorcycle batteries. The unit does work well and charges a low battery in reasonable time.

This little device is a powerhouse when it comes to keeping your battery healthy—smart, efficient, and reliable.What really stands out is how sturdy and well-built it is. Despite its compact size, it feels solid and durable in your hands—definitely not flimsy or cheaply made. I’ve used it through multiple weather conditions in my garage, and it hasn’t skipped a beat.Performance-wise, it's exactly what you want. It's smarter than a trickle charger, automatically switching to maintenance mode once the battery is fully charged.
