    battery maintainer

    I have them all over the place -never a worry. I wouldn't set one on top of an open gas can but shy of that you won't have a problem. Heres a Ctek, an Optimate and a Schumacher SP3 all in one storage area. Each quad has an SP3 The Toyhauler bank has the ctek on it. The car has an optimate...

    battery maintainer

    Prefer the optimates over all the other smart chargers I have. 1. wider AH range 2. lower recovery volts 3. wider temp range Love my Ctek's but they don't have the specs the optimates do.

    Ctek or Noco charger

    Another check for Optimate - I have all the brands and these are may fav throwdowns. I just had a single optimate 7 recover a 410 AH AGM bank from 6 volts to the rated 13.6 V float charge. This saved the client 1200 dollar on replacements. Uncle Dave

    Can someone explain this wrench to me?

    Like any other tool when you need it its worth its weight in gold. Fast action wrenches are invaluable on marine header bolts where you can't fit a socket and will do the old "fliparoo" 1000 times before you are done with a set. Have Facoms and Britool set. Uncle Dave

    World's best oil filter wrench video?

    Its worth it to me. It's already ROI'd in the first few tough removals. If it fits- its the #1 go to wrench to before all others in our shop. Being a boat manufacturer we get lots of boat filters that have been on for years and rust. This facom tool is the real deal. Uncle Dave
