Title: MR2 battery charger
Post by: Joesson on November 13, 2020, 16:12
Well that's what I use mine on typically for 6/12 of the year, however this last period I have been alternating with it on my daily.
I have mentioned elsewhere/ previously on here the Ultimate Speed battery  charger available from Lidl.
Well the below link advises that this is back on sale and available, probably only until close of business tomorrow:
FQA
No it won't recharge a flat battery.
Yes it will trickle charge 6 v and 12 v batteries.
Yes it is reliable, mine is on for months at a time.
Yes it is durable had mine for six years.
No it is not the price it used to be, what is?
It's currently ( did you see what I did there?) £12.99

With regard to the price comment, it's shocking what you did. At that price Resistance is futile and everyone should consider the potential to use one at ohm in the future

(I will get my coat!)

I can see there are at least two bright sparks on here!

Unfortunately both my Lidl chargers failed a couple of months back, one after a long life, the other less so, now gone for a Cetek as there were none on sale at Lidl at the time.
