MotoPower Battery Charger Unboxing and Review

Super......

Thanks for the look. It would be interesting to check leakage current from AC mains to each output ring. I would use it to float a pair of 12V 7ah sealed lead acid on my bench (two for +-12v). Just in case it would put some noise onto common ground with other equipment, and I forgot to switch off/unplug. Obviously, it is galvanically isolated to get any rating agency to pass an ungrounded plug. The question is secondary bypass switching capacitor size in the universal switching supply?

I’m not sure I have the equipment to measure that.

That's a SAE type connector, it's nice to see for compatibility (although companies like CTEK, Noco, Victron etc use their own proprietary connectors, unfortunately). These 12V charger reviews are interesting, thanks! 👍

Thanks for you feedback. I'm not fond of SAE connectors because the polarity is not determined by the connector but by the application.

[@GeorgeFL]

@@jtechlabs1 Oh I see what you mean! Thanks! 👍👍

seems like it does what it is supposed to do and does it pretty decent. the real question is with these generic chinese products is their durability and reliability. there are even cheaper chinese stuff in amazon that's under $10. but i dunno if the money you save instead of purchasing known brands like battery tender, ctek or the likes will be worth it if these things end up burning your garage. i have purchased and currently using a generic chinese battery charger but i have never left it on indefinitely. 😂

Thanks for your feedback. I share your concern. With so many products coming from China it is hard to assess quality. I rely upon certification by third party test labs (UL, ETL, CSA, TUV). This unit has an ETL certification.
