on a stored, off-season convertible, boat batteries, lawn tractor, plus the assortment of cars.
They work great; really need at least a couple of weeks [it seems] to de-sulfate. The lawn tractor and boat batteries used to make it [maybe] three years. On the fifth year/sixth year for them now, hooking them up[ during the winter for a couple of weeks each, then rotating to a different battery.
The more capable model lets you select amp rate, battery type, and even override it right into 'float' mode. Bought them from an RV supplier in Idaho.
