Just plain works March 18, 2010
L. Stockler (British Columbia Canada)
I have a '01 Yamaha FZ1 with a 10 year old Battery Tender attached to it for at least 6 months of the year. The Yamaha/Yuasa sealed battery is still the original factory unit, to my dismay (I grew up with wet 6V Yuasas on the 70's). Battery is going on 10 years but starts strong and holds charge without a problem... it is hard to believe.
This would NEVER occur before I started using this thing - any bike would have a weak battery within 4-5 years of installation if the bike saw no action for a good part of the year.
I also have a Ford Powerstroke Diesel truck (don't ask) with its two batteries that sees very little use during winter and sits outside and exposed. I have a Battery Tender attached to it and the truck starts strong. This was not the case before I replaced the batteries and installed a second Battery Tender for it.
Last but not lease if you go to any BMW dealer you will see BMW re-badges Battery Tenders and sells them as a BMW accessory to help keep their electronic-heavy models from dying in the garage when they are not used often enough...

I ride a Goldwing Trike and I have had a battery tender for years. Nothing else lets me keep the battery in the bike in the winter without the cold damaging the battery. I have found that it extends the life of the battery by as much as 2 years. Amazon had the best price and the service and delivery were excellent.
GREATEST BATTERY PRODUCT March 16, 2010

This is the first time I have purchased a battery tender.
It has worked great for my auto battery.
The size of the tender is perfect. It has kept the battery charged ever since, especially since the battery sits.
Highly recommend it to everyone. Fast delivery service from Amazon and it was in stock.

D. Cambria (Southern Calif. desert)
This product works EXACTLY as advertised. Easy to install and "idiot prof." If you leave you vehicle parked for extended periods of time, you need a Battery Tender. (No I don't work for the company.)
another good review for the battery tender March 14, 2010
Scott
I was using a black & decker "smart charger" before this and it sucked. would always give me errors no matter the battery I tried
got the battery tender and it works fine. used it a few times on various batteries and has always worked.
side note for optima people: your really only supposed to charge at 1AMP. but the battery tender is only 1/4 amp over that. alot of people are using typical 2AMP chargers and getting away with it. just saying per optimas website its supposed to be 1AMP max.
happy charging
