This thing rocks!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This arrived in the nick of time. My battery was slowly going downhill and I was just procrastinating. This particular morning my truck did not start at all. I was able to get my battery charged and jump start it just using this awesome device. The wheels were super easy to put on. It's very convenient to just wheel out, plug it in and then to wheel it back into the garage. I would absolutely recommend this.

    High Quality!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the handiest battery charger/engine starter I have ever owned! It's sleek, compact and effective. High quality and convenient. It gets the job done and more! I love the fact that the outer shrouding is metal and the charging clamps are also metal. It has wheels and an extendable handle so you can move it around easily. The cords are quite long, so you don't have to move it around too much. The digital display is so useful, it allows you to see what the battery charge percentage is as well as a number of other things. It has 3 choices for charging, 6<>2A Charge for charging small and large batteries. Boost for quickly adding energy to a dead battery and Engine start, which provides additional amps for cranking an engine with a weakly charged battery. It can charge 3 different types of batteries: STD, AGM and GEL. I can have peace of mind knowing I own this electric battery charger. I think everyone should have one in their garage!

      Great battery charger
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live on a farm and have machinery that occasionally needs a jump from a battery charger. We needed to charge the battery on our John Deere tractor so we used our new Schumacher Electric Automatic Wheel Charger Semi Pro. Great digital display easy to understand and use, 12 foot total reach with cord and cable so easy to maneuver to our tractor. We used the 50A boost mode to quickly bring the tractor’s battery to life. We appreciate that this charger is fully automatic so it will not overcharge and that it is safe to use outside in all kinds of weather especially our cold Wisconsin winters. We will also put this to use with our personal and farm vehicles, this will a life saver for our farm and home.

        Pro Series For A Reason! Great Features!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What an amazing charger for the home, office, or shop! I use this thing more often then I should, even just checking my batteries to make sure they are charged. The Professional series speaks for itself, and the charger is from Schumacher! I've always been a fan of Schumacher Electric, and their products. They're one of the big names in the battery charger industry from way back when, and their new products do not disappoint me at all. I've been in the market for a great battery charger, on wheels, with enough power to jump start my F150 incase I leave my lights on (again). This charger / booster has all the features I need, and some of that I'm not using yet but might someday! The booster with give you an extra shot of 250 amps, to help roll over that dead battery / Engine to get you started when you need to get on the road in a hurry and hope your car will charge the battery the rest of the way. It also has a 150, 50, 6, and a 2 amp trickle charge for both 12v and 6 volt batteries. I know everyone thinks a battery is a battery, but it's important to have a charger that knows the difference between a 12v (car) battery and a 6v (think lawn tractor) battery. This thing is professional enough to know the difference! Do I have any complaints? I don't think it's a perfect product, there are things I would change. My biggest complaint, is the short cord length. The cord going from the unit to the 110v wall plug is fairly short. I'm going to estimate 3 - 4 ft. It's nothing too crazy as I can always use an extension cord to get it where I need to be, but it would be nice to have about 4 more ft or so. Beyond that, sometimes the touch panel is a little weird, especially in the cold and with gloves on Overall, it's a GREAT charger, that would be a welcome addition to anyone's home, office, or shop. It will charge your car, your truck, or your lawn tractor without a worry in the world.

          Have not had chance to us yet. Seem to be a very good built unit and will probably last a long time. Was impressed with how quickly it got to the house. Thanks

          Husband likes that it automatically evaluates each battery for type and how much it needs to charge. The automatic features are new to us and he is very impressed. We have such a wide variety of equipment and vehicles, it is very convenient to have one charger for them all. Being able to roll the charger around is a nice change to carrying one or two chargers around to every piece of equipment.

          Good charger
          So far it's worked awesome. Only downfall to me is the removable power cord. It comes loose. Have to push it in at every use
