Optimate Charger. Any good?
#1
Hiya fellas,


As per title, are these any good & a worthwhile investment.


The last few days running up to London & back with the Tiger, I've noticed it getting that little bit slower to turn over each start - to work and from work.


I always run with the headlights on (dual H4's) and have also been using the heated grips each way. Now the battery is about 14 months old & it's charging at 14Vdc so alternator all good.  The battery is made by GS and is a CB14L-A2 (short notice buy from local KTM dealer) which meets my CCA of 140A.


Question is - is it time for a new battery or should I be plugging into an Optimate or equivalent every night.


Don't want to buy a new battery @ £50 odd when I can get the below for less money. Orrrrrrrr did I just buy a cheap shite battery instead of a Yuasa?

Any advice as always is much appreciated
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
