2017 TOP 5 Smart Chargers
Batteries do not always work the way the manufacturer intended, for example, they are often discharged, so the driver has an urgent task: to solve this problem in a short time. To do without intellectual storage, especially in winter, is almost impossible. After all, a discharged battery is a real car.
Some models can be equipped with useful functions: desulfation, restoration of exhausted batteries, automatic charging, special winter mode. The main advantages of such models are compactness and ease of operation.

5 PLACE
Universal charger for charging 6 and 12 V batteries. Can be used not only for cars, but also for boats, snowmobiles and agricultural equipment. The model is equipped with a powerful microprocessor, which independently determines the state of the battery and delivers the desired current and voltage. Therefore, the charging process is as efficient as possible, no closures occur and the possibility of incorrectly adjusting the device is excluded-as a result, it lasts much longer.
The nine-step charge system includes both careful recovery and power. Provides a memory function, which is useful if you need to temporarily disconnect the battery. The device remembers the information at 12 o'clock.
Another advantage: the design automatically adjusts the voltage depending on the temperature. For example, in winter, this parameter will be higher, and in summer-lower. For beginners who have not previously encountered such devices, protection against improper connection and short circuit protection is provided.
- + Universal: for 6 and 12 V. battery;
- + Battery recovery;
- + Automatic voltage adjustment;
- + Multiple protection systems.
- - The absence of the "On / Off" button on the instrument itself.
Charging device — this design is almost essential. Their presence simplifies the life of the driver, because you do not need to constantly contact the car service center to charge the battery, especially if it’s freezing and the charge level drops faster. Having a built-in battery in the chargers will allow you to solve the problem of a discharged battery very quickly, for example, if you need to go to work.
