Recommended Battery Charger

[gohjohan]

No prob, may I know what are the complains? And does it charge a new batt?

 

No, it doesn't. That's the main complaint. The Ctek XS3600 is the best for me so far. Can charge for car and bike. I feel like getting one for my brother-on-law when I go back to Australia at the end of the year.

Your Vanson charger should be able to charge new batteries as well - just have to make sure u dun overcharge the battery, best to charge & watch. Most user of old type Chargers tends to overcharge their battery, thus reducing the battery lifespan.

Hi there, recently my battery had a problem too. Changed it not long ago and it is dead maybe due to my seldom ride. I am riding a cbr400 using a yuasa battery, may I know whether is XS 800 is compatible? How much does it cost? Do you send by post as bedok is too far for me?

[limbat]

Yes mate the XS800 will be suitable... We will send by post FOC mate Price is S$70.

If your battery is in good condition, 2 weeks isn't a problem. That's how good my battery is, thanks to the Ctek XS3600 model. Sadly, it couldn't save my mum's car battery in time. The battery was probably coming to 3 years by then.

Most original OE battery hv a life span of 5 years & after-market brand last abt 2-3 years, but u hv to maintain them by charging & reconditioning.

hi limbat,

 

question. this is a battery charger or starter? if charger, that means we hv to take the battery out n charge it at home with this charger?

 

i need something that can be use with my bike n car...any recommendation? thxs..

[limbat]

CTEK is a battery charger, dun hv to take the battery out if u r near a 220-240v power point. There are are 4 models to choose from - it really depends on your needs - how fast u wan the battery to be charged. The base model is the XS800 0.8amp 500gm (slowest but cheap at s$70) & top of the range is the XS25000 25amp 2kilo (fastest but expensive at s$520). U must view to decide.

[norishimu]

xs800 = slowest

how slow is slow?

how long will it take to charge?

Depends on the battery size. I'm very tempted to get the XS7000 'cos it can recondition battery. It's about $275 For long term investment, I think it's good. The XS800 and XS3600 can't recondition battery. They recharge it.

[norishimu]

thnks fr d prompt reply...

hmm battery size.. let say, yuasa battery on s4?

[slutgarden]

yep would wanna know that too, using the same batter.
