I have used this charger nearly every day for 2 years on my job as a professional automobile technician. Today's vehicle batteries need to be placed on a charger to keep system voltage above 12.5 volts while their computer systems are interogated by the technician with a laptop or some other computer. This little charger has always been up to the task as well as charging an assortment of dead batteries. The only glitch I/ve had is that the plastic aligator clips broke but they are easily replaced. I'd recommend this charger to any professional or the do it yourselfer.
Rating: - The Fountain of Youth for Batteries!!!
I have had this charger for over 3 years now and have found it to be the very best!! I use it every year to rejuvenate my car and tractor (now 7 years old) batteries, my brother borrows it every year to rejuvenate his boating batteries and I have found it to be a life saver on those rare occasions when I leave the "lights on" and run the car battery to nothing. A well designed product should not be totally judged by "customer service" or those rare modes of failure. It is a very good charger, it does what it promises to do, and I am very happy with it. You may borrow it if you need it ---- but if you don't return it, I'll come looking for you.

I've been using various chargers to maintain my household solar system for nearly twenty five years. When I installed a new system two years ago I purchased a VEC1092 2/10/20/35 and it has been an excellent choice. I am surprised at the bad reviews it has gotten in this forum and hope that I was not simply lucky enough to receive a rare "good" one, because I am ordering another one today for a neighbor who also lives off the grid.
Rating:  - Worked OK for a while.
This was very tempermental, often giving an error message that something is wrong with the battery. I tried it on the same battery yesterday, and got three different messages in 3 consecutive tries. Saying battery was full, then a bad cell, and finally not connected. I tried it on 2 other cars which were both less than 3 years old, and both had "bad" batteries. I never did get my battery charged. There has to be better choices.
Rating:  - Poor Customer service
This unit will charge deep cycle marine batteries and auto batteries (Wet Cell only). I would not use this on AGM or Gel batteries.
Within a year both alligator clips broke under normal use on standard battery terminals. Not good. They told me I had to send the entire unit back both times. Instead of just sending me a new termnal, the girl said that would void the warrenty.
Let see , top dollar for the charger itself. 2 UPs shipping charges waiting for the unit to be repaired two times...........
I'd look elsewhere before buying this unit again.
I hope this is helpful.
