Have split relay but not doing enough miles to charge fully anyone recommend best value battery charger

I use a Ctek, It's one of those intelligent chargers apparently, does all sorts of magic and keeps the battery in tip top shape. Around £45 I think I paid.

I bought a cheap one from Halfords 2(ish) years ago and it does the job fine. It has a trickle charge or fast charge option.

This one..

If you need it to charge a leisure battery the charger in link above might not be suitable .

I got a similar one from halfords for £39:99. reduced from £57:99 . think they still have them on offer now halfords own make great charger . Mike

I was told it would be better to charge a leisure battery with a low amp charger - so I bought a £15 6 amp one, the battery started to lose it's holding capacity after a year. I think the cheap charger was overcharging & cooking the battery

I put in a split charging system and on days where I've done low mileage I use an intelligent charger overnight - once it's charged fully it checks the batteries voltage every minute or so

Think the intelligent charger is made by Seally and was just over £40

Ctek chargers every time, the 3600 has a fairly low charge rate which is ok for the 100amp leisure battery in my van, it desulphates the battery to extend its life.
