since purchasing I discovered that the item won’t charge a flat battery. I am currently seeing if it will maintain the full charge on my motorbike battery. Fingers crossed.

Very pleased with this item and the speed of delivery,although the item is larger than I expected it can easily be fitted in an inconspicuous place.

This seems to be a good product, as far as one can tell. Neat, and easy to install, anyway. I hope to avoid having a flat battery next winter.

Even though the blue LED light on the product just stays on instead of flashing sometimes,I’m pretty sure the charger is helping my battery stay topped up.
My car has been stood for 3 weeks now without been started.
The battery still has 11.82v(from 12.44v originally) in it despite the alarm and radio back up still using power. This is despite some pretty overcast and short days.
Hopefully I can leave the car 6 weeks or so between start ups during the summer,maybe more. Very pleased.

Good product, well made and it works.
Bought for my mother in-law. Her car is used max once a week for very short journeys. Her battery was dying but this little thing kept it going. I would recommend it
