Least expensive approved charger for Odyssey batteries
By Rob S
So far I am impressed with this charger.Pros:Operation is simple, cool to the touch, and essentially silent. The charging cycles are relatively quick, the unit is very compact (much more so than the picture implies - about the size of a small purse), this charger is approved for the Odyssey line of "dry" cell AGM batteries (see the Odyssey website), and it charges more than the Odyssey line of batteries (unlike the Odyssey branded chargers - that are very expensive).Cons:Limited charging capability (8 Amps), no digital display for battery parameters (% charged, volts, Amps etc.).** Update ** Cheap/flimsy clamps. The positive terminal clamp handle bent when squeezing it to attach to a battery terminal. I will be contacting SOLAR to determine how they will handle this issue - I will update this review with the results. **For note: I would have purchased one of the larger chargers in the SOLAR line if one of the larger chargers was on the Odyssey approved charger list. This is the only reason I rated this at 4 stars.Nevertheless, I highly recommend this charger.

Excellent and silent charger for Odyssey (AGM style) and traditional batteries.
By Mark
I have an Odyssey battery that requires a special charger that is approved by the company. I tried an Odyssey OMAX-12A-1B charger and liked it except that the cooling fan runs constantly and is annoyingly loud. I returned it and found out that this charger is approved by Odyssey. It's also about $25 cheaper, too. This charger, unlike the OMAX-12A-1B, can also charge other non AGM batteries, so that's another plus over the OMAX.I've had my charger for about six months, and it works well. I'm hoping it will keep my Odyssey battery well conditioned, but time will tell. I killed my first Odyssey battery when I naively used a Sears trickle charger on it.
