CTEK CT5 Time To Go – Fully Automatic 12V, 5A Battery Charger for Cars and Motorbikes
Ever found yourself stuck with a flat battery at the absolute worst time? The CTEK CT5 Time To Go is a real lifesaver, designed to take the hassle out of charging and maintaining your car or motorbike battery. It’s fully automatic, so there’s no messing about with fiddly settings or second-guessing what to do. Just hook it up, and it gets on with the job safely and efficiently.
What sets this charger apart?
The clever bit has got to be the countdown display — it actually tells you how long you’ve got to wait until your battery’s fully charged and raring to go. That’s a proper bonus if you’re in a rush or just want a bit of reassurance. Plus, it flags up when it’s safe to give your engine a go, so you’re not left scratching your head wondering if the battery can handle the starter motor yet.
Built tough for all weathers
Hailing from Sweden, this charger isn’t just made for the snug garage. It’s engineered to perform in all sorts of conditions — whether it’s bitterly cold or scorchingly hot, you can rely on it to get the job done. It’s spark-free and comes with reverse polarity protection, so if you accidentally plug it in the wrong way, it simply won’t work, keeping both you and your battery safe.
Compatible with a wide range of batteries
This little gem works with most lead-acid battery types you’ll find in vehicles — AGM, gel, wet cells, you name it. But it’s not just about charging; it also maintains and even reconditions flat or tired batteries, giving them a new lease of life and saving you from shelling out for a replacement. Perfect for keeping batteries in tip-top shape during those long spells when your vehicle’s off the road, like over winter or in storage.
What to expect day-to-day
Gone are the days of playing guessing games over your battery’s health. The CTEK CT5 Time To Go keeps things straightforward and transparent. It’s lightweight — just over half a kilo — and compact enough to chuck in your boot or garage drawer without a fuss. Ideal for car buffs, bikers, or anyone after a reliable, no-nonsense charger that does exactly what it promises.
Some might wonder if it’ll work on completely dead batteries. Generally speaking, it’s best to check the battery’s condition first, as very old or badly damaged batteries might not bounce back. But for most everyday uses, this charger will be your trusty sidekick, keeping your battery charged, conditioned, and ready whenever you need it.
