This brand appears to be well-marketed junk. AvE (YouTube) did a great teardown on this and the video revealed very poor-quality internals. Unfortunately, that video was taken down, probably due to a lawsuit or brand maintenance disguised as copyright infringement. You can find remnants of the video's existence with some searching.
When I was in the market for a battery charger/maintainer, I found that video while it was still up. It convinced me to stay away. I ended up purchasing a unit by CTEK. While the equivalent unit is more expensive than this deal, you may want to consider it if you'll use it almost year-round like me.
Look for prices on the CTEK MUS 4.3.
I got one new from Amazon for $42 less than a year and a half ago and left it maintaining a battery. At some point it just shut off and lit the power LED amber instead of staying in maintenance mode and by the time I noticed, the battery was toast. Now I can't get it to charge anything. It either doesn't start charging at all or it looks like it's starting to charge but then does the same LED thing after a while. The cables look OK and it doesn't seem to have a blown fuse so I guess it malfunctioned in some non-obvious way. I need to try the warranty process but suspect they'll probably make me pay to ship it somewhere, wait for weeks and then claim it was misused and offer to send a refurbished replacement for only $50 (ok, that's just speculation, maybe they'll do better than that but other reviewers haven't exactly been impressed with the warranty support).
No, and you would be paying a lot more for one with the feature.

Ordered, but quickly cancelled. Looks like lots of complaints lately about the wire falling apart. I like Nico products, but will buy the newer version over this one.
I got this a few month ago for the same price, and I am ordering another one to keep it in my office. I think it would be tough to find a better charger for the price.

Bought this about a year ago from woot and it hasn't failed me yet. Charges everything I've asked it to.
