I use it for my two batteries on my boat and they were brand new last season. Everything charges just fine there with no issues....
I've previously used it for my riding lawnmower battery as well. Hooked it up to my riding lawnmower battery this winter and it started corroding the positive terminal on the battery and the positive alligator clip for the charger is now corroded and completely trashed.
It works just fine on my two boat batteries. Don't have an onboard charging system-this charger/maintainer is what I use in my home garage during the winter after I pull the batteries for winter storage.
I guess what has me mostly confused is that the negative terminal and battery charger connector have remained PERFECT. Not a single bit of corrosion on them.
Thanks for the replies guys. I'm going to replace the riding mower battery this spring and just see what happens from there. Was just making sure there wasn't something simple, or something complicated that I didn't understand, that I wasn't thinking about.
