5 out of 5 stars Switching battery charger at bargain price   December 2, 2008
M. Friese (Tustin, CA United States)

This B&D charger uses a switching power supply which makes it quite light. The inside of this charger contains almost nothing... just a fan and a circuit board; the large outside dimensions are retained to remind people this charger is just as powerful as its big and heavy cousins. Some of that volume is used for cord and clamp storage.

This battery charger is different from most battery chargers you have ever used. Most old school chargers are built around a big iron line transformer attached to a diode bridge. Those designs rely on the voltage drop in the transformer and diodes to "current limit" the charge... but they really do a marginal job of it.

The B&D charger uses high frequency switching electronics and a tiny, tiny transformer. Unlike like "old iron" chargers, the current is actively regulated to a precise point until the battery voltage rises to where the charger switches to constant voltage mode. This allows you to charge at a maximum safe rate even as the battery voltage rises. The charge rate in amps is always displayed on a two digit LED display.

A caution: The 25 amp range is too high for charging a gas automobile battery if you wish the longest possible lifetime for your battery. Always use 10 amps if you are not in a hurry. 25 amps is good for the impatient, golf carts, deep cycle batteries, and diesel batteries.

This charger does not spark when you connect the clamps... even if you hook them up backward! Current only flows once the charger is satisfied that it is connected to a battery.

This is the best designed and most innovative battery charger I have seen. And the price is right too!

This thing can jump any vehicle. I had an electrical short that totally drained a battery, and this charged it up enough to start the car so that I could get a replacement. Awe inspiring.

I bought this for general use for personal cars and the boat. It is light easy to use and has a number of extra features. It tells you if the battery is bad which is very useful. It also is a 25/10/2 which is nice because the 25 will charge a battery is less then 2 hrs. I would recommend this to someone looking for a home use unit.

Black and Decker VEC1095ABD 25/10/2 AMP BATTERY CHARGER

Although you have to plug this unit in to an AC source, it's easy to operate and idiot proof. Not for use when you do not have access to AC power. Well-designed and light weight. Instructions are fairly easy to follow.

I purchased this charger to use on a recent fishing trip to Canada. We do a lot of trolling with an electric trolling motor attached to our 16 ft boat. It's not unusual for us to discharge a deep-cycle marine battery after a whole day of fishing. So we needed something that could fully-recharge our batteries overnight. This B&D 25/10/2 charger worked like a charm!! Easy set-up too. I give this product five-stars. It worked flawlessly and exactly as expected.
