How do you choose which car battery charger to buy?

Purchase an automatic battery charger of at least 10 amps output. Voltage has nothing whatsoever to do with what you choose. It is going to be a 12 volt output charger if you use it on an automobile. You want an automatic charger that will shut itself off when the battery is fully charged so you do not have to monitor the charger yourself. You can also buy a charger that can be used as a booster to jump start a car with a dead battery if you choose. The Schumacher SC-1000A battery charger is an excellent charger that will charge auto batteries and deep cycle marine batteries. It will charge at 10, 6, or 2 amps. It is fully automatic and sells for around $45.
