I bought the genius1 and used it to charge a completely dead Honda accord battery. It took almost exactly 48 hours. I just ordered a genius5.

Actually this conversation started with me pointing out this charger isn’t sufficient to charge a super dead car battery that is connected to the car electronics. The inrush I mentioned is related to...

Voltage is voltage and current(amperage) is current.
When you multiply the two, you get watts AKA Watts law. Increasing voltage and/or current increases watts, but increasing voltage does NOT...

There’s no such as in-rush for this kind of application. In-rush is for the initially high startup current for AC motors, such as when starting a compressor. The induced magnetic field to start an AC...

Doesn’t the fast charge happen when you’re actually driving the car around and the alternator is charging the battery?

Totally agree. However, FWIW, the alligator clips are attached via ring terminal that can be disconnected with allen wrench and connected to ATV, UTV, MOTO, mowers, and other small form batteries...

If money isn’t an issue, the 5 would be better for car batteries. Not sure if the 2 is sufficient since the inrush is different from car to car. Worst case is you have to disconnect the battery while...

We’re using different terminology for the same thing. Charge current is 100% tied to input voltage. You just said yourself that you use a charger capable of cranking up the voltage to provide enough...

If I accidently charge it under 12V and it turns out to be a 12V AGM will it do any harm? Likewise, the other way around. Charge a non AGM in the 12V AGM mode? What would happen. Just asking if...

14.4VDC is voltage NOT amperage, and many cars will NOT get that high. Actually it is NOT a lot of current (Your house is 110-120 volts AC.) Voltage is an undefined amount of current without the...
