*Note: All Deltran battery chargers will charge all types of lead acid batteries: either flooded (standard STD), sealed maintenance free Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM), or sealed maintenance free gelled electrolyte (GEL) batteries. However, for optimum battery performance in deep cycle applications (for example, running a trolling motor), it is best to chose the Deltran charger that has the charging software specifically designed for the battery type. Fortunately, since the technical staff at Deltran has developed charging software that works equally well for both STD & AGM batteries, the only choice to be made is between 2 models: either STD & AGM or GEL software.

"Works great on the boat" 2010-01-29
By Robert Sweeney (United States)
I have two boat batteries with a combiner and a switch and use the battery tender to keep them both charged. So far it has worked as advertised and I would certainly buy it again or recommend it to a friend.

"Perfect for long-term battery maintenance. Must-have equipment for motorcycles." 2010-01-17
By dblhoya (Washington, DC)
As its name implies, this charger is designed for long-term maintenance charging, rather than recharging a dead battery in a few hours. Widely accepted as standard equipment for motorcycles that spend time sitting in the garage during cold winter months. Tops off the battery automatically and keeps it healthy. It's also worth getting just to have the adapter permanently mounted on the bike, as there are so many accessories made to work off battery power by plugging in to the battery tender adapter (for example, Slime's "Power Sport Tire Inflator," which is a great portable air compressor you can use anywhere with the battery tender adapter. Slime 40001 Power Sport Tire Inflator). The waterproof model is worth getting if you're going to leave it out to charge all the time (as recommended) to protect against moisture or any exposure to bad weather. I've used it to charge a dead car battery, too, and it worked but took about 18 hours.

"Pretty good so far" 2010-01-02
By Fish (NW Georgia USA)
I've only had this for about four months (I only rated it four stars because I don't know the long term quality). So far it works very well. There are other reviews that describe the unit. Please note it is only a two amp trickle charger and will not keep batteries that have serious drain.

"Waterproof Battery Tender 800 12V Charger is GREAT, so far." 2009-12-28
By Dr. Indahouse (Philadelphia, PA)
I have a red-top optima battery in my sedan, which I think for the most part is a great battery (my 1999 Acura had the original battery up until 2.5 yrs ago, so I don't have much to compare it to other than that original). However, because I hardly drive anywhere anymore, I needed something to maintain the charge, especially during the winter. A few months before I purchased this charger, one of my front headlights was going quite noticeably dim. It is a xenon, and I was dreading purchasing a new one. However, after having this Battery Tender hooked to my optima battery just overnight, to my surprise, the problem was resolved. Apparently, it wasn't my light bulb that needed changing, but rather just my battery that needed some "tending". Since I'm not an auto mechanic, I don't know the details for why only the driver's side bulb would do this if it was a battery issue (you'd think such battery drainage would show up bilaterally), but that's beyond this review.

I have never owned a car battery charger before, but looked into one last year and after a little research in different auto sites/forums, where they seemed to constantly warn about getting the right charger lest the battery overflow and cause damage to the battery and so on and so forth, I chickened out (those sites & forums always recommended expensive battery chargers, and I didn't want to pay over $60 for something which could potentially also harm my $170 battery!). Then, when I received an email from amazon about this product, I just had to give it a try at under $30, especially because another site selling it claimed that it worked on optima batteries (plus the great reviews). Have not regretted it for the past month I've owned it, but obviously a month's time (even if that month is during the winter time) does not a best review make :)

In any case, I found the directions extremely easy to follow. The only problem I can see a novice to "anything below the hood" can potentially have is knowing where/what a "ground" is. For that, I recommend a quick youtube search, so you can visualize it. I have only used the clips so far, but it comes with what I believe are referred to as semi-permanent attachements. Let me be honest, I have no clue off the bat how to hook them up to the battery, but again I imagine it isn't rocket science and youtubing it would solve that issue for others who want to use them. Hope that helps!

"waterproof battery tender" 2009-12-24
By Robin C. Polk
This product is just what it claims to be. A smart charger that does a float charge to keep your battery in peak condition. It came with both ring terminal connectors and mini clamp connectors which allows you to switch the charger to other vehicles. Low charging amps so long charge time but that should be better for extending battery life.
