Very easy use, set the battery type and charge amps, and you're good to go. I have used this now on both a marine starting and marine deep cycle battery, and it does it's job with ease. Seeing the battery % really makes this easy to use. The only thing is that sometimes when you hook it up to a deep cycle battery it doesn't read correctly, where it will show really low battery %, like 10%. This is corrected by taking off the ground for a couple of seconds, and then replacing it. If you are charging an old battery for the first time, and aren't sure of where it stands, be ready for this possibility.

I found two problems with this item: (1) The instruction booklet is unintelligible to the average person; (2) Neither I nor my car savvy friend were able to jump start a lawn tractor battery (although his 15-year-old Schumacher charger worked perfectly). I'm glad I purchased through Amazon since they took the product back and credited my account without any difficulties.

Do not leave this unit switched on and hanged on battery!
- UNIT NEVER SWITCHES OFF AUTOMATICALLY - IT CANNOT DETERMINE WHEN BATTERY IS CHARGED! ENDLESS CHARGING!....
- NEVER SEEN IN BATTERY TESTING or DESULFATING MODE - seems unit doesn't use this AT ALL.
I've been using this device for about 3 years.

I could not get the charger to charge my car battery. Took battery to a local auto suppy store and they had no problem charging the battery. Sent item back
