I took my friend battery that was dead for months and gave this product the acid test. My goodness the battery is back in operation and working good as new. This is a must have if your car battery is giving you the weak signals...this bad boy will revive the dead!!

I have tried this unit on all types of small batteries so far so good. It does a lot of tests and diagnosing. This is by no means a speed charger, but it is a great slow good charger. Seems like pretty good quality.*Update I have had this for a few months and now I can understand what it is telling me but was confusing at first. I like it a lot it does a great job.
Best Deals for OptiMate 6 Ampmatic battery saving charger-tester-maintainer
This restored a battery that would not take a charge from a standard charger after being run completely flat. The indicators are a bit mysterious and the user has no control over what it's doing. But it paid for itself on first use.Honest reviews on OptiMate 6 Ampmatic battery saving charger-tester-maintainer
The OptiMate 6 is fantastic. I have had it for a week and used it on 6 AGM batteries ranging from 5 AH to 79 AH in capacity and 6 months to 3 years in age. Two of the batteries were completely dead (wouldn't even light a little light bulb). One of those wouldn't even take a charge from the charger that came with it. The others were in various states of discharge. 5 of the 6 batteries now hold a charge and work as well as new. The 6th had been dead for several months. It now holds a sufficient charge, but is not "like new." I did have to run that one through several cycles of charging to get it to hold the charge.The lights are a little confusing at first, but if you watch what it is doing and read the book, you can understand it. I keep the book next to the charger and review it as necessary. I am very comfortable with it, now, and rarely refer to the manual. As someone else stated, this is not a speed charger with maximum output of 5 amps,
I have seen different places state that this charger is good for different size batteries. The manual states that it is good for batteries ranging in capacity of 3AH to 240AH.
This charger never says it is finished because it goes into a "voltage retention test" mode once it is "finished" charging the first time and then into a maintenance mode where it sends current to the battery occasionally as it detects the need. You could consider the battery charge "finished" at either of these points.
The easiest directions I can give for this thing is to just plug it in and leave it alone until all of the lights stop flashing.
