Need a cheap battery charger for bike?

[dk55belair]

I got a coupon for this for $3.99 in the mail, but the sale price is cheap enough for anyone who cant pay for the higher priced ones.

Check your mail and they might even have the coupon in-store.

That's about $35 cheaper than the battery tenders.

May be a good deal, but I'll spend a little more for the Battery Tender. Wouldn't wanna take the chance of burnin' things up for the sake of a few bucks. Have had the BT's for years without incident.

I dont judge anything by the cost, and HF has some good stuff. I posted this because in todays economy, most of us only buy what we have to have.

I have some wrenches from there that pretty stout.

Does it matter if use a 12v or 6v tender?

Battery Tender Junior 12V @ 0.75A - Motorcycle - Batterytender.com

Battery Tender Junior 6V @ 0.75A - Motorcycle - Batterytender.com

I know it makes a difference on 12 to 24 , so I would think it would on 6-12.. Probably due to the amount of out put vs. amount needed to do the job..

Hey

I didnt start the thread to debate battery tenders.

I just figgered someone might need one that cant spend $40 right now.

I'm gonna try it, if it malfunctions, all would it do is trip the breaker.

I have a $100 sears charger that could easily malfunction.

You guys that have too much money quit picking on us poor folks.

A few of those have burned garages down.....................

I bought one of those and used it one winter. When spring came along my battery was toast. After buying a new battery and a new battery tender jr it seems that I lost money trying to save money.

One of my concerns along with shorting out. I've been using a BT for almost 8 years on my Donzi that resides in GA. During the winter it's hooked up full time and days can go by before it's checked on. I personally wouldn't be as comfortable with a brand X charger to do this. Just me though. Hope you can feel as confident with the HF charger.
