I have:
- four of the 12117TC BatteryMINDers, one for each of the batteries
in my Kenworth, since it works best to have only one battery on a
maintainer, but right now two of them are maintaining the two Group
31 batteries connected to my UPC SmartUPS 700 and one is maintaining
the Group 49 battery in my 300SD while it is up on jackstands to
have its rear axle half-shafts repaired.
- a BatteryMINDer 1510, which will recover a battery from a much lower
voltage than the 12117TCs
- a BatteryMINDer 128CEC1 for charging one battery at a higher current
The only problem I have with the 12117TCs is when the utility power here
drops out as it is frequently wont to do. When the power come back on,
the 12117TCs go into equalizing mode, something not a good idea to do too
often. To get the 12117TCs back into maintaining mode, I have to press the
green button on the front of the charger.
