Automatic 3A 6V/12V Battery Charger and Float Maintainer with 11-Foot Reach – Battery Tender 022-0202-COS
An automatic battery charger supplies 3A charging for compatible 6V or 12V lead-acid batteries, then switches to float mode to maintain proper voltage. Battery Tender model 022-0202-COS supports flooded, AGM and gel batteries used in cars, SUVs, trucks and other stored vehicles.
A push-button voltage selection keeps 6V and 12V operation distinct. The combined six-foot AC cord and five-foot DC charging cord provide 11 feet of reach, while the alligator-clip and ring-terminal combo cable supports temporary or semi-permanent connection. A two-color LED shows charging status and adaptive charging resumes full output if battery voltage drops. Spark-proof connection behavior and reverse-polarity detection help prevent output until the leads are attached correctly. The compact 1.4-pound charger is intended for one battery at a time.
