Best battery maintainer

[Saudirick]

Hi, Now that the RS isn't getting used so much and the winter car is used more, i am looking to get a battery conditioner/maintainer. What are the best options out there? The car is garaged and still gets used occasionally so needs to be able to quickly disconnect the unit

Your probably going to get some very mixed replies to this, but I think it will all boil down to how much your willing to pay for the solution.

I bought mine 18 months ago and all the things you mention were on my mind, I decided on buying a MAYPOLE MP7423, it will cost around £24 delivered and so far for me I’ve used on 3 different vehicles and it’s been perfect.

Cracking piece of kick, very intuitive and plug and play and the trickle charger does the rest for you.

Thanks for the replies, I have gone for a CTEK MXS 5.0 due to it being able to re-sulphur the plates and potentially recover deeply discharged batteries

Actually thats exact one I have too, works very well indeed.
