[QUOTE="lemur, post: 623896, member: 2483"] I think though said item may indeed provide 12vdc, it will be at low amps, that's why it's a supply and not a charger. The recommended amps for charging a 12vdc automotive battery are circa10 amps- and that current would need fusing correctly. I'm no electrician but I'd advise against using a small power supply unit to charge a leisure battery. There are cheaper designated battery chargers- Aldi recently did a nice unit not unlike the CTEK at a very good price.. cheap is good. safe is better. I'm sure someone with better knowledge will be along to enlighten us :) Liam [/QUOTE]
