[Shop-talk] What is the best trickle charger? (and Harbor Freight Go-Jacks followup)

[Peter Murray]

Another vote for the BatteryMinder units. I have a 2/4/8A 12V unit (model
12248), and it has been great. Adapts to different battery types as well
(AGM, Gel, Flooded). It was a well-spent $110 at the time (2012, on
Amazon). Not sure what they cost now.
