Veko smart battery charger – Easy to use

To use the Veko smart battery charger I just needed to attach the battery charger to the terminals and plug the other end into the mains supply and the generous cable length gave me plenty of room to manoeuvre.

Then the charger automatically reset itself and went into standby mode. It ascertains the correct battery voltage and then starts charging. The charging indicator then lights up and once the battery is at 100%, the full charge indicator comes on. The charger will then maintain battery charge as it is connected.
