Features
The MXS 5.0 TEST & CHARGE combines an advanced micro-processor controlled battery charger with a battery and alternator test function to provide the ultimate in battery testing, charging and maintenance.
Charging - The MXS 5.0 TEST & CHARGE provides excellent performance on batteries from 1.2Ah up to 110Ah. The charger solves a broad range of battery problems and features include a patented automatic desulphation step and a special reconditioning step that will revive and restore deeply discharged and stratified batteries. The patented Float/Pulse maintenance makes the charger ideal for long-term maintenance. The RECOND and COLD WEATHER OPTION operate individually or together in both SMALL BATTERY and NORMAL BATTERY programs providing great flexibility for the user.
Testing - Three easy to use programs to test battery voltage, start power and alternator performance to provide a complete picture of battery and vehicle charging system health.
The MXS 5.0 TEST & CHARGE is easy and safe to use, protects vehicle electronics, spark-free, reverse polarity protected and short circuit proof.

Excited to receive the charger and have the test functions as an extra feature. Mode button on face didn't work from get go and so have had to send back.Excited to receive the charger and have the test functions as an extra feature.

Keeping up with the latest battery technology requires keeping your charger up to date too. This charger covers all the bases of currently available battery types for the lead acid variety - Wet Cell, Flooded (MF) , Gel, AGM and Calcium/Calcium (Ca/Ca). It also allows some diagnostics too on the battery and alternator. It allows set and forget for devices left on charge eg Jetskis, stored motor cycles, boats, campervans etc. Charges batteries up to 160Ah on maintenance and 110Ah standard charging process. 8 Stages of charging including desuphation which extends battery life. Short circuit protection and reverse polarity protection included... View MoreKeeping up with the latest battery technology requires keeping your charger up to date too.

I've recently purchased and found it properly charges my boat battery without danger of overcharging and allows it to come up to full charge. I have a new Ca/Ca in my car which I can do a regular maintenance charge on - its a DIN75 730cca 80Ah bigger than most standard car batteries and expensive enough to warrant the cost of the charger.
Pros - Its small enough to be carried in the car if necessary or can be fixed in the workshop to a bench.
Cons - Not total intuitive - it pays to keep a copy of the instructions handy. If you don't need the test features then the standard version of this would save a few dollars. The supplied bag is really too small. I bought a small toolbag to keep it protected.
Thank You
