Yokohama MF , century MF

But my most satisfied purchase is CTEK mx5.0 charger , every once boost the batteries to full capacity

For many years all these MF only last one year , once I started charging with wall charger , now 2 years still strong.

Any new battery is given a boost before install to offset the shelf storing discharge

Nope , just clip on battery terminals and off you go

Unless boost mode then advised to remove terminals because it goes to 16v , much higher than normal 14v from alternator

Depends also on the amperage of the charger , mine is 5 amps maximum so on average overnight is more than enough to bring the battery to full , mine are like DIn60 big batteries

If small NS like saga, wira, kancil , 4-5 hours also can reach full charge

My advise when choosing a charger , choose the biggest one that you can afford , definitely minimum 5 amps , go more if you can

IMO, no need spend top dollar to get something like ctek..... there are cheaper alternatives available.... a quick search at lazada or lelong can give u an idea

i am using ctek and yokohama..... ctek is 4A rated and yoko is 10A.... both charge my batteries equally well.... yoko charges faster on bigger batteries like ns70

ctek is 9yrs old with defective board, cant change charge mode and yoko is 4yrs still tip top.... quality wise both ok to my standard
