PL2410 10-Amp Fully-Automatic Smart Charger, 12V and 24V Battery Charger, Battery Maintainer, and Battery Desulfator with Temperature Compensation

portable12/24 volts

This is my second Clore charger. My first charger only charges 6 and 12V batteries. It has worked flawless. This 24V charger is used to charge my battery bank used as back up for our well pump. I used to have to individually charge each battery. Now I can charge two at a time. The charger has worked perfectly each time I used it.

I've heard a lot of good things coming from Clore, so I decided to give this unit a go. Appears that I set my expectations too high, as they refuse to back their own product. I attempted the Force Charge feature on 2 motorcycle batteries (down to 1 and 3 volts, respectively). Didn't work, but I accepted that it was largely a 50/50 shot. On my third attempt charging a larger 850 CCA battery (SOC 70%, SOH 90%), it made an audible click and just flat out died. No lights or audible beeps/noises. Disappointed with its resiliency, I contact their warranty department. Although a warranty-related defect was identified, they won't cover shipping. If I'm dropping >$130 on a unit that totes best-in-class performance/features, I shouldn't have to be out of pocket to cover shipping costs for their missed QC.

Works as described. The rest of the shop uses 6-12 volt chargers and complain when a coach comes in and has a 24 volt system. No complaints here.

I am a professional technician and I seem to have issues with this sophisticated equipment. I realized this a sensitive machine and it won't work good on old batteries. I had a cheaper harbor freight charger that was a straight forward technology. I can't return it but hopefully I figure out.
