I am looking to buy a battery charger & was wondering if anybody has any info on a good charger to get. Nothing too elaborate needed. Battery is dead now & want to get a charger to recharge the battery but also get it started to move out of the garage. Should I go with a 100a charger ? Any input on brands would be helpful too.

Thanks,

Steve

The one that I have is a Schumacher brand, 6/2 amp for both 12 and 6 volt batteries, I guess. It is one of the ones at Autozone for like $30 or so and it hasn't let me down yet.

I have a Craftsman brand that i have had for 20+ years. It has been used and abused (rained on) and still charges like a new one. It is about the size of a bread box and has settings for charge, activate 6V 12V 2 amp and 10 amp charges. Also picked up a little one (6"x6x6) 1 amp single setting Walmart charger at a garage sale for a buck, that damn thing works great just have to be patient http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Oh yeah, when it got caught in the rain i just let it dry out for a week and it worked just fine
