The CTEK MXS 5.0 has become the gold standard for keeping car batteries healthy, and a rare Amazon discount has knocked more than £20 off the price
If you're ever lucky enough to browse someone's private car collection, you're almost certainly going to see a profusion of these battery chargers connected up.
It's the CTEK MXS 5.0 battery charger, and it has been the go-to device for anyone who cares about their vehicle for years, because it's one of the most effective pieces of kit for keeping batteries healthy.
Keeping a car standing for long periods takes quite a toll on its battery, which is why trickle charging it is important.
And CTEK's MXS 5.0 has been the default choice because of its simplicity, reliability, and durability.
It's fully automated and it's intelligent, so you can connect it up to your battery and the device will work out what's needed to keep the battery in fine fettle.
CTEK also offers permanent connections, which means you can quickly connect the charger to your pride and joy when you've finished using it, rather than lifting the bonnet and fishing around for battery terminals.
And, if you have let your battery maintenance slip, there's a reconditioning cycle which desulphates batteries, repairs their cells, and brings them back to healthy status if they've been depleted.
Every stage of its cycle is indicated on LED lights on the front of the charger, and you can leave it connected for months, letting it silently get on with maintaining a healthy battery.
It's quite rare to see discounts on the MXS 5.0, but we've just spotted one on Amazon. It's a 22% saving over the usual £94.99 price and it brings it down to just £74.34, which is the lowest price we've seen for a while.
You don't need to be a car collector to make use of the CTEK MXS 5.0 - if you have a vehicle you care about, especially one that sits around for a while, you need a battery maintainer.
And this is the best one on the market. Don't miss the deal.
