If you don't know what to ask for New Year, ask for a good battery charger, to keep your I5 battery in optimal condition.
- You have boost chargers, to quickly help you to start an ICE engine with an empty battery, but I think this can be dangerous for the electronic units in the case of EV's
- you have trickle chargers to help maintain the battery in optimal condition
- you have normal battery chargers that need some time to slowly and safely charge your 6/12/24V battery.
There are a lot of normal battery chargers on the market, but I opted for BOSCH because they have a lot of technical automotive knowledge, produces most of the electronic units and have their own batteries.
Depending on your budget you can opt for the :
-
Bosch C1 charger for 12V car batteries also with EFB technology (order nr
0 189 999 01M).36.33€
-
Bosch C3 charger for 6V two-wheel and 12V car batteries also with AGM and EFB technology (
0 189 999 030) 59.00€-> 36.41€
-
Bosch C7 charger for 12V and 24V Lead-acid, AGM, WET, GEL and open VRLA batteries (0189 999 070) 77.39€
the BOSCH C7 battery charger for the following advantages and features :
C1/C3/C7

C7 only
