Default CTEK Battery Chargers

The CTEK Battery Charger is the smartest battery charger on the market, period.....Included as an OEM component on many high end cars, it simply cannot be beat when you compare features/price to other chargers on the market. It is outdoor certified, small enough to mount anywhere on your car, dust proof, shock proof, spark proof, and get this-->reverse polarity protected (smart enough to know if you have the red and black wires reversed



The CTEK is one of the few battery chargers you can leave connected to your battery while it is connected to the car without risk of damaging your vehicles computer. You can leave it connected for months and months without worry of damaging your battery as it is constantly conditioning your battery instead of just keeping it charged.

We have sold hundreds of the CTEK brand chargers for the last few years and have been able to negotiate a great price for an awesome charger.

Check it out at the link below....in stock and ready to ship! Trust me, no other charger on the market even comes close to this one and our price is hard to beat. Lots more information and informative video at the link below.

Note: Use coupon code "ctek" during checkout for additional discounts.

I've been using one of these for the past three years. It's a great unit and I wouldn't mind getting another one so I don't have to move it between the two vehicles I store every winter.

You will not find a better deal anywhere.....make sure you use the "ctek" coupon when checking out.

Thanks,

Jim

Hmm, I was just thinking I should find a good charger as my battery is crap after the winter. May have to jump on this one.

How do you permanently attach this with the screw type terminals on the C5?

nice product but others that are just as good should be bought when they are made in AMERICA, not foreign countries....time to buy USA and stop sending money to other countries. My opinion, do as you feel as this is a free country.

great point.......they are made in Sweden.

If buying from Sweden violates your patriotic oath then this charger is not for you

It comes with eyelets so that you can bolt it right you your battery. You can also plug it into the lighter socket with the lighter adapter if you want to charge the battery that way.

The Lighter Adapter is sold separate here...

Thanks.

Don’t know if there is something similar that’s made here? The USA models I see are more industrial strength.

I've had both a Battery Tender and this CTek model. My Battery Tender died after a year for no apparent reason. That's when I bought the CTek. IMO the CTek is far superior in quality and functionality. I've had no issues in a few years now. Very happy with mine.
