Review: just got it and it seems to be a good product ! - Great Battery charger/maintainer . Very easy to use and so far working as described .
Review: It works thats pretty important - As a maintainer to a automotive battery it did what was needed and expected. This one is 4 amps that is enough to compensate for most battery draws from the vehicle. Easy to install, easy to operate, durable and easily stowed away. Works on all types of batteries and comes with a quick disconnect when you want to put it away or use it. The display is useful in determining the condition of the battery and state of charge. Cord is long enough to be useful and they do offer an extension cord at an extra cost. The big European MFGs offer a similar if not the same branded charger for more money. Sometimes to the tune of 800.00 dollars more. Save your money and buy this one.

## Features

- Countdown Timer and Start Indicator: The world's first charger with a countdown answers the question ‘When will my battery be fully charged?’ It gives you an accurate prediction of the remaining charging time in hours. Indicator will tell you when you can safely try to start your vehicle before the battery is fully charged.
- Built-In Temperature Compensation: Built in automatic charge voltage compensation ensures the most efficient charging in extreme cold or hot weather conditions.
- Reconditioning Mode: Reconditioning mode restores stratified and deeply discharged batteries, excellent for Powersport vehicles that have been in storage for long periods of time.
- Dedicated AGM Mode: Dedicated AGM Mode sets the absorption and float voltages and stage timing so that they are optimal for AGM batteries.
- Patented Desulphation Function: Unused batteries lose their power and their life is shortened through sulphation. The charger analyzes the state of the battery and, if possible, recovers the battery and its power.
- Connect and Forget: Simple plug and play operation. Select the program and mode and leave the charger to do the rest.
- Safe and Easy to Use: Splash and dustproof, designed to protect vehicle electronics and non-sparking, reverse polarity protected, and short-circuit proof. Clean voltage and current delivery ensures no surges or spikes.
- Protects Sensitive Equipment: Unlike less-sophisticated chargers, there is no need to disconnect the battery; the CT5 TIME TO GO is specially designed to not damage electronic systems. No overcharge or undercharge ever.
- 5-year warranty.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which ctek battery maintainer works best for 2004 cayenne turbo?**
A: As a maintainer, the MXS 5.0 is perfect.  It can be connected permanently as a maintainer as well as bring up a weak battery to 100% in a reasonable time. I keep these on 2 Jaguars that don't get used often (one with a lead acid and one with an AGM battery). 
If you had a dead battery that needed to be charged fast, then a higher amperage would be a better fit, but this at 4.3A output will satisfy 99% of homeowners.

**Q: Will this work for a hummer h1 with two batteries?**
A: The CT5 Time to Go  is designed for  maintaining 12V lead-acid and AGM batteries up to 160Ah.  If your batteries meet this criteria the CT5 Time to Go will work very well. Since you have two batteries they should not exceed 80Ah each.

**Q: If the power goes out while this is hooked up, will it automatically start charging again once the power comes back on?**
A: Yes

**Q: Will this maintain my 12V deep marine battery for my boat?**
A: Our CT5 Time to Go charger (40-255) is designed for lead-acid and AGM batteries up to 160Ah.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great batter tender/charger
*by B***U on April 20, 2023*

This is my second unit as they work really well. It is capable of many things and does a fine job keeping the collector car battery ready and in charging up the daily drivers that go short distances requiring the occasional "top off" type charge. Would by it again if needed. Plenty of clams and methods to connect to the battery too.
