Ford Performance Battery Maintainer

[viperwolf]

I was getting ready to pull the trigger on this, and after finding out some good information from a member here. I decided to ask the forum if this is good or should I look at something else? https://www.amazon.com/M-10300-FP-S...RY+CHARGER+&+MAINTAINER&qid=1616819268&sr=8-3

It will take about 2-3 weeks for it to arrive once ordered. The one I have now is, well a little cheap.

It should be good. It appears to be a rebadged C-Tek. C-Tek has a good reputation. I recommend that you not use it as a maintainer on really hot summer days. And of course you have seen the other thread, so you know how to connect it.

When I was looking I noticed the ctek also and a few others. Prices are close, so I figured I would ask. Feedback and experiences and all that jazz.
Thank YOU.....................................again
Everyday is hot here, but I keep it in the garage.

Can anyone that owns this (ordered from Amazon) tell me what the input voltage range is please.

Selfish bump for input voltage, Ive tried asking on Amazon with no luck.

I just got a C-Tek and hooked it up yesterday. Is there something unusual about how to hook it up that I should be aware of? I couldn't find the other thread that you refered to. Thanks.

I just did a quick video yesterday when I was updating the FPP tune in my Ranger. You would connect it the same way.
