CTEK MXS 3.8 Smart Battery Charger
Set & forget Charger. Connect it up & walk away, the charger will do the rest.
The extra cash for the silicone sleeve is worthwhile if you can find one.
The plating on the bulldog clips seems to be better quality than what you might usually get & the clips are fully insulated.
I had never heard of this brand but a suggestion on a forum somewhere made me look & I' m glad I did because the one I had in mind was a series of decisions you have to make with the buttons.
This is set & forget - no drama at all & overcharge proof.
If your battery is sitting for some time then this is the answer - the higher [5] amperage one would be faster but this one works fine & charges fast enough my application [2020 i30 N Line sitting idle for weeks at a time - 550CCA battery].Read full review...

Ctek charger
Very well presented, easy to use great little charger.
The ability to have fixed connectors on my RV to keep the battery maintained and be able to simply unplug it then plug a set of crocodile clips to charge/restore another battery off my boat or one of my bikes is great.
Love itRead full review...

Easy to use
This is easy to use and effective. I have an indicator eyelet attachment on my motorbike and ride-on mower batteries that let me know if they need charging with a flashing LED. I don't have to dismantle my bike or mower now that they are fitted. I simply plug the charger into the eyelet and turn it on.Read full review...

Very Handy Device
This trickle feed charger is a life saver. My car which only is used for car shows and events was often close to having a flat battery due to irregular use. Now I never have to worry. Simple to connect and the battery always is ready to go. A great imvestment.Read full review...

C tek the best chargers
I own a small farm lots of power equipment that gets used intermittently used to have endless problems with sulphated batteries until about 15 years ago I was put onto the need for maintenance chargers.
Since then I've tried many brands of charger all of which have eventually failed especially during winter time in damp tractor sheds the only ones to survive are ctek.
My oldest ctek is about 10 yrs old with this new one I own 6 of them of different capacities
All you need to do is buy the ctek charger of correct capacity for your battery plug it in and forget about it and your machine will start wether it's 6months or 2 years in the future maintenance free batteries are best but if your battery isn't just check your electrolyte every now and again
Don't bother with any other chargers and what they promise ctek is all you needRead full review...

Ctek 12v and 24v Chargers.
I have had Ctek chargers for years. They have safed me from normally having to replace discharged batteries on my Cars, Landcruiser, Truck and motorbikes.
My other chargers will not recondition and/or restore flat batteries. As long as there is at
least 1.5 volts or more....a Ctek will bring it back.
I have the - 0.8, 3.8, 7 and 15 Amp Hr 12 volts and the 14 Amp Hr 24 volt Cteks for all
my gear...….for the mower, key start generator, jetski, boats, motorbikes, cars, 4WD,
off road camper, Trucks, and Excavators.
They are just awesome.
Nothing comes close to a Ctek.

Good multipurpose charger.
Seems great so far and can be used on both my cars and motorbike. Excellent but I am a little sceptical of the many stages and claimed desulfation ability. Only time will tell whether the life of the battery is extended by the charger.Read full review...

CTEK 3.8 charger is perfect
Very easy to use with good functionality. The 3.8 tops up a car battery v fast and keeps it in great condition.

Small, compact, and takes up very little room when stored in my car's glovebox.
It's a no-frills battery charger/maintainer and it did exactly what I expected it to do! It is self regulating and can sense whether the battery needs recharging or already fully charged. And the low charging rate means that it does not cook the battery. A 5-star rating. Read full review...

Better Value than the Marine version
My old Marine CTEK charger died. I spoke to CTEK customer support who said that the 3.8 was both a better and cheaper charger. As long as it wasn't likely to be openly exposed to a marine environment it would be worth considering. So i did. As with all CTEK chargers it works perfectly and maintains my starter battery without missing a beat.
However... Anyone considering installing a 3.8 in their boat be aware, one thing they didn't tell me was the 3.8 doesn't come with the huge length of cable the Marine version does, probably about 500mm as opposed to about 3m. My Electrics cabinet is very close to my engine bay, but still not close enough. I had to extend the charge wire.Read full review...
