I just can’t justify the price.
What's the matter with this price ... :h : https://www.amazon.com/BatteryMINDer-Model-12117-Maintainer-Desulfator/dp/B000P23HZS
I have a couple of them - one for the garden equipment batteries and one for the non-stock heavy duty engine starting battery I had installed in our Class C motorhome for it's E450 V10.
The one I use for the motorhome's starting battery has maintained the battery's at-rest terminal voltage at a little over 13 volts, 24/7, for 10-11 years whenever the MH is in the back yard not being used.
Posters are posting without following the thread.My comment about "not justifying the price" is related to the trik l start. I saw one. I'm not an electronics guy but it seems like there is very little involved in the construction of the device verses the cost around 55 dollars.
Now, IF you followed the thread you would have noticed I gave my opinion concerning what I use to maintain my batteries.
How much is a starter battery< who cares. I can purchase 3 battery maintainers and hard wire them to be used on any and all my vehicles for the cost of one trikl thing.
I have 8 vehicles ,so 3 maintainers vs one only makes sense.
Pnichols is along the lines of what I posted and I enjoy his input and helpfulness. Thanks,P
