That awfully clever car battery charger is on offer again this
Thursday
for 12.99. It's just about small enough to fit in a pocket but punches
well above its weight. About 4 amps output. Does pulse charging to try
and
recover a badly discharged battery. Goes to maintenance mode after
charging. Similar costs over 40 quid elsewhere.

The max output seems low on paper but in practice it charges a battery
fully as fast as many of over twice the nominal output.

I missed those the last time. Thanks for heads up.

Thanks again.

And I think I know what else I'm getting for Christmas

Although I don't know who is going to be buying it for me yet. :-)
