I fitted this to my kit car and what a great addition! No more removing the bonnet to access the battery .. simply keep an eye on the battery status (inconspicuous) LED that let's you know the charge of the battery, and plug it in when your battery starts showing low, simples!My only gripe (reason for my 4* rating), is that you cannot unplug the dash connector from the wiring running to your battery, meaning that when you cut the hole in your dash/panel/whatever, you've got to feed the entire length of the calling through towards the battery (you cannot feed from the battery to dash, only dash to battery) when installing it. If you ever need to then remove the dash/panel/whatever, you need to disconnect the wiring from the battery and remove the unit along with your dash. I hope that makes sense! I may write to CTEK and suggest this for the v.2 version!

C-Tek chargers are the best and had one a while.My battery is under the boot floor (Jaguar X351 XJ) so this is perfect. Attached connectors to battery, and fitted this in side covering of boot (I used a piece of plastic with a hole in it for it to connect into on the backside of the material to give it some strength) . Now I just plug my connector into the side of the boot, and can always see state of battery with indicator lights.

Handy as a charging point. As my battery is in the boot I fitted it on boot wall. Very easy to plug in my charger,The indicators on the gadget are too sensitive as red light, which means battery needs a boost, seems to be lit all the time.When I check the battery with a voltmeter it is at 12.5 volts.Worth having as it makes connecting charger a dawdle.

All CTek kit is fantastic and this is no exception. I’m going to install this into my second car which doesn’t get used so often. It makes connection to the charger dead easy and the battery condition indicator lamps are just great.

Straightforward and easy to install. Works really well.
