    The vendor contacted me and wanted to offer the following Northstar battery charger as an adder to group buy participants ONLY:

    http://www.northstarbattery.com/northstar/engine/accessories.php

    Notice that is says "CTEK" on there?

    I went a did a quick Amazon search on them:
    $155 CTEK Multi US 7002, 12V Battery Charger for Cars, SUVs and Trucks, All Weather Smart Charger, Battery Tender Charger, Battery Desulfator, Battery Maintainer, Power Supply Mode and Reconditioning Mode
    http://www.amazon.com/CTEK-56-353-1...ywords=ctek+multi+us+7002+12v+battery+charger

    Apparently these two chargers are the same thing. Except they're branded/rebranded, you know how it goes.

    You will get the "NORTHSTAR" version for $95 and is originally priced at $139.

    I do not know much about these, all I did is look at the reviews on Amazon to see what people thought about them.

    I will leave it at your discretion.

    PMs with ordering information incoming.

    I had contacted Northstar about what charger to use with the 31M deep cycle battery in our trucks, and they promptly responded:

    "In that application, I would go NoCo or cTek. Minimum 7A, probably would recommend 25A with the quick disconnect. Both have a great algorithm for charging our batteries."

    If I understand correctly, the higher, 25A, amperage is beneficial for the deep cycle batteries, but the brand Mike's selling is clearly what Northstar recommends.

    You could also go to the store and get a battery tender for $40 and it does the same thing. That's what I use.
