About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Worth a special mention of its own, rather than just included in the general Lidl posts - this is a rather special battery charger, very much like the much more expensive CTEK models, but at a fraction of the price.
Electronic, versatile and capable of dealing with problems that an ordinary charger couldn't cope with.
Buy one for the cold weather battery problems - but be early. These are likely to sell out quickly.
Electronically controlled, fully automatic charging with LED indicator
Choose from continuous charging function or trickle charging with thermal overload and reverse polarity protection
Charging cable with insulated clips
Suitable for most 6V and 12V car or motorcycle batteries with a 1.2- 120Ah capacity
4 variable charging rates, max. (A): 3.8
Operating voltage: 220-240V~ 50/60Hz
Recovery mode helps to prevent sulphation
Size (cm): 19.5 x 6.7 x 4.4
Cable length (m): 1.9
3 year manufacturer’s warranty

Watch the video at Lidl to see how good it is.
Great value for money.
Heat added.
I would say yes, but I only ever borrowed a CTEK, I own this one, it is fantastic
Best £13 I have spent in a long while.(_;)
They need to have around 4V output left before they will start to charge.
The Aldi version was better as it displays the voltage or an error if the battery is too flat.
Its fine to keep a battery topped up on a permanent connection as it drops the rate - but if you only want to buy one charger this one is no use as you wont get dead batteries to work again.
Lastly - Aldi never cleared their stock before Christmas of the LCD displayed version - and dropped the price by £6.
yes, you can it will charge your battery
Some items are " area specific ", so may not be in your area.
when you go to the site click continue without post code and it will bring it up
You might need to enter a postcode to view the charger. Worth a look, though - these are really quite exceptional and a steal at the price. There's nothing else like it on the market at anywhere near this price.

Exactly - it can be left charging indefinitely.
second this. i have one and it will not charge a dead battery.

In such a small package at this price? This is a bargain. It's low amps but it's a good price. I've got chargers that cost 15plus times this price but I'd still buy a couple of these to keep things ticking over.
I've been using it for ages now for one of the biggest 12V batteries around and it performs much better than the ones with more max charging amps...
Great bit of kit if you've got a bike or vehicle that doesn't get used regularly
Any difference in specs between the two ?
(I see a bit of hype here over this)
May be suitable f you have a classic car and you just want to keep the battery trickle charged over the winter months - otherwise I would recommend to steer clear of this.

Hype hype hype - wow - it's even got HOLES!!! to fix it to a wall!!! isn't that just amazing.
3.8 amps MAX! - it's just weeny but have heat for making me laugh ...
