Battrey chargers Deltran Battery Tender and NOCO Genius
Much todo has been made regarding the Deltran Battery Tender chargers from time to time here for maintaining backup batteries for CPAP use. Still top flite, but I have also added the NOCO Genius chargers to my lineup. Newer tech and a little more flexibility WRT battery types. The four spare 35 AH batteries in the closet are now on a NOCO G4 charging bank with four separate charging circuits. Not the fastest as it is only a 4.4 A charger (divided by 4 if all four slots are on), but fast is not the purpose. It is to keep all four of them charged, all the time, with no intervention required from me.
Still have and use my 6 A Battery Tender for when I want to push the charging rate up (like a partially depleted car battery). No longer driving the truck daily - maybe every week or two - and I intend to mount a NOCO 2D under the hood so as to, in the words of Ron Popiel, RONCO founder, "Set it and Forget IT!" to keep that battery topped off when not in use (don't want to do a complete cutoff as I want things like the radio and clock and electric door locks to continue working).
Anyhow, just thought I'd offer up another option if anyone is considering a new charger.

There. I said it.
