Solarrific&reg C5004 1.5 Watt Solar Car Battery Trickle Charger and Maintainer

more important quality of product and usage are excellent. it really works nice, output is between 18-19 VDC so charging is real. we have one big 4x4 5,7 l engine vehicle, on proffesional battery tester, battery was not so good, we placed item, plug it and after 2-3 weeks, started normaly. only rubber suction cups could be better. I bought 3 and now I have plan for some more.After my comment about products, incredible but true, Solarrific contacted me by e mail and phone to discover my opinion about this product and even returned money for one that was not working properly. I am really glad to realize that companies and management still existing on the market. Now I have a plan to test all their products and start ordering them for my company. I hope that soon I shall have experience from guys with powerboats, campers etc, and will share it with you, guys.

I like it but it would be nice to have the indicator light show that the battery was actually being charged. I did not realize that the battery clip had come off and as the light said it was charging I did not know till much later one had come loose. Honda doesn't have live sockets, they go through the ignition.There is a warning to not start or run the vehicle with the panel connected as surges could damage the panel. Nice to be aware of.

I use this on my van which seems to have a parasitic draw on the battery, it has started every time since attaching it. It warns against starting or running engine with charger attached so i have it set up with the included alligator clips and attach while it sits at home or at work and works fine. This set up is potentially saving me repair costs on my old '93 van.

Again, I like the concept but too low output to be of any use....good quality construction. Does not keep a vehicle battery charged.01/06/2014Well, I have given it a good test and the final conclusion is that it is a TOTAL waste of money. The voltage is good but at such a low amperage it is of absolutely no use what so ever.The little blue light flashes like a champ....I guess that's where all the energy goes!If you have money to give away that you do not need...get this product.

used it twice so far with good results however a voltmeter is needed to say if its working as stated.

This is a good emergency charger for a small chinese scooter. Altho it says it only will hold the battery level the battery I had, that came stock, for my scooter would accept enough of a charge if I was stuck with low battery enough to get me out of the jam. I have since purchased a good 120 CCA motorcycle battery since but still keep this with my scooter or on the battery if stored for a long time. Would buy from this company again.

Seems to work, but every once in a while I'll find the battery dead so....

So far so good , I have it working on my truck , the blue light is flashing , kinda slow on the shipping but packed well and priced right .Update , worked for about a month then quit.
