Clore Automotive PL2320 20-Amp Fully-Automatic Smart Charger, 6V and 12V Battery Charger, Battery Maintainer, and Stable Power Supply with Temperature Compensation

Lo compré porque la marca es de prestigio, lamentablemente aunque le doy un uso ligero, a los 3 años de la compra, dejo de funcionar, el display se quedaba parpadeando y de ahí no pasaba. No lo recomiendo

Great tool. I bought this charger more for the power supply function for extended diagnostic sessions with the engine off and for light programming, even though it's not recommended for programming. Works great for maintaining the voltage up when using my scan tool with the engine off. I haven't used it for programming yet but many say it's perfectly capable of keeping up for most lite programming that doesn't require high current draws. What really impressed me was the battery charging and maintainer functions. It's fully automatic and once the battery is charged, it goes into a maintenance mode. Simple. The voltage and battery selection is easy. You can select between charge% and voltage on the readout. If the battery drops under 1V, the charger won't start charging as a safety measure but you can force a charge by pressing and holding the start button. If your battery is that depleted, it's probably better to charge on a 2amp trickle charge. There are clear status indicators that tell you when the unit is charging and when the battery is fully charged. You can select very easily between the modes power supply/charge voltage modes, amperages, and battery types. It will charge std lead acid, agm, and LiFe batteries. It will tell you if the charger detects an error or if the polarity connection is reversed via the indicator lamps. This is a smart charger and takes different strategies when charging, varying the voltage and amperage accordingly. For example, I started a charge on a dead lead acid battery. Voltage was just under 2V. The charger started charging pulsing on and off until the battery reached a certain voltage to ensure there were no issues before it went into a constant charge. There is a cooling fan that turns on/off on demand. This is a very well thought out, quality tool. Brilliant piece of equipment. Very happy with it👍

I bought this and a Noco Genius10. Where the genius 10 failed to bring back my car battery (even in repair mode) to an acceptable state of charge and capacitance, this charger did the job very well. At first this charger did not do very well, due to my learning curve with it. What I learned is: for it to work best, on any battery, make sure the battery is low first. If you are charging a nearly full battery this will do very little for it. You must use a light bulb or something to get the battery down to 12.1 or 12.0 volts, then use this charger in agm mode on 20 amps (use 10 amps for smaller batteries) to achieve an excellent charge. I have used it on 3 agms, 2 were 6 volts, and 2 regular flooded lead acid car batteries and it has worked great on all of them after following the procedure of draining them down low first, then charging. If your battery is already dead, you may have to use boost mode to force charge it from stone dead. Not all batteries will come back to life if they are damaged or too old. The AGM mode is the key, it charges the batteries at a higher rate and this helps balance and de-sulfate them. I would not use this mode regularly on flooded batteries, but once in a while is a good refresh for them. I'm not sure that I would use it on GEL batteries either as I have no experience there. The 20 amps of this charger is also key, most 10 amp chargers do not satisfy the 0.3c charge rate of normal car and truck batteries, I feel the 20amps also give it an edge over noco's 10 amp unit. Overall I am happy with it now that I understand how to use it for the best charge possible. Note: if using this as a maintainer you should probably select the correct mode for your battery type. My process is only for balance charging batteries. I make no claim that it will work for you and take no responsibility for any issues you may have, use at your own risk.

I bought this in February 2021 as my old charger stopped working. Was sat in the box until a few days ago when I needed to charge the car as it hadn't been used for a few weeks. Switched it on after connecting it to my battery terminal and went inside the house for a gfew minutes. Luckily I came back out to check it and smoke was pouring out of the side vents. I switched it off and could hear burning noises coming from inside the box for several minutes. I then wnt to see my Amazon order to request a replacement and found there was no option, as apparently this had been shipped from the US. This could be a one off but it could have set light to my car or worse if it was charging in the house. To add insiult to injury I can't even replace it. Last time I buy electricals from Amazon

$$ WARNING $$ - DANGEROUS to Non-USA Customers - 110V ONLY!!! NOT suitable for 220-240V use !!! This is NO reference on the listing or on the packaging that this is NOT 240V! The only clue is very small print on the underside of the charger. There is no 110v/240v selector switch. I have not seen a domestic use electrical item with single voltage input for decades, (UK construction site operations excepted). The Rest-of-the-World supplies items that are dual mains voltage, normally auto-selecting now, occasionally by a two-way slider. AMAZON USA!!! ** You NEED to correct your item listing URGENTLY stating 110v ONLY**
