there are a lot of these battery trickle/float type chargers around and most of them just seem to be copies of the battery tender products. i havent used it for a long time – less than a year, and it has helped a battery stay alive for an infrequently driven vehicle. this one is waterproof as well (i dont think i found any others that were waterproofd), but i haven’t really tested that feature. i bought two of these, and they work great.

However, for optimum battery performance in deep cycle applications (for example, running a trolling motor), it is best to chose the Deltran charger that has the charging software specifically designed for the battery type. Fortunately, since the technical staff at Deltran has developed charging software that works equally well for both STD & AGM batteries, the only choice to be made is between 2 models: either STD & AGM or GEL software.
