leisure battery charger

[Graeme Broome]

I use a 75Ah leisure battery with a pure freedom flowmaster with battery charge facility but occasionally the battery dies usually when I forget to turn the pump off over the weekend, haha. So I'm looking for a mains charger.


I've found this:


CTEK M45 12V 3.6A 4 Stage Marine Battery Charger would this be the best option?


Also found this but not sure:


RAC RAC-HP239 4A Smart Battery Charger 6 / 12V

Streetwize SWIBC5 3.8A Fully Automatic Intelligent Charger 12V

I think they will all work fine although the CTek is a well respected charger and probably the one I would opt for given the choice of these. It will just take them much longer to charge up your 75 amp battery as they are only 3 to 4 amp chargers.

If you battery is only 25% charged it will take those chargers more than 16 hours at least to fully charge the battery initially.

It would be a case of putting the charger on to it every second night and leaving it all night.
