CTEK battery conditioner

Post by roboguy »

Hi all,

Seeing as I am not getting to drive my 356 as often as I would like at the moment I'm thinking of getting one of these to alleviate starting issues.

Anyone have any experience / opinions?

Thanks!

I use the 12V version - just leave it pluged in when the car is 'resting'. Can't see any reasone why it would not be a sound investment for you.

My Dad has one permanently attached to his TR6. Start instantly every time. I'd have bought one but I have no power in my garage :(

Thirded.

Mine came with a lead that fixes permanently to the battery terminals, teminating in a socket that you can quickly plug the unit into. No messing about with crocodile clips.

Probably best not to store it on the garage floor, where you can drive over it :)
