Battery Chargers

[pafire]

Hello All I have a problem or just a mess. After doing a search on the topic of battery charger cables i was not able to find any ideas on how to wrap the cables. So what do you guys say on how to properly wrap the cables on your chargers, Mine seem to be a tangled mess whenever I go to use them. Thanks in advance for your advice on this problem.

I just wrap them around the handle.

What kind of charge are we talking about? I generally try to fold the cables and power cord back and forth and tuck in the handle. That works well on my smaller charger. One pull and they come straight out untangled. Larger shop type chargers I usually just coil the cables around the handle.

Don't overthink it for your charger. Simple is likely better.

Both of mine have little storage compartments on the back. Roll the cable up and put it in its little cubby, clamp the clamps to their little storage posts, done.

I've got a big Schumacher with a tow handle. I just wrap the wires around the handle, then clip the clamps onto the plastic grip.
