Amazon.com Product Description
The Schumacher SC-6500A SpeedCharge Automatic Battery Charger is part of the "SpeedCharge" line of chargers, the state of the art in battery charging technology. An internal computer controls the charge rate while monitoring the battery condition to insure the battery is not overcharged. With SC-6500A electronic technology, you can hook up the battery, set the controls, and walk away. Your battery will be fully charged in a fraction of the time required by conventional chargers. When the computer control determines that the battery is fully charged, the charger is shut off completely. The SC-6500A SpeedCharge is an automatic battery charger for 12V, deep cycle, gel cell, and AGM batteries.



The SC-6500A monitors itself to prevent overcharging your battery.
Versatile
The SC-6500A will charge batteries for a wide variety of vehicles, including cars, trucks, RVs, deep cycles, farm equipment, motorcycles, and lawn tractors. With this charger, you can charge virtually every type of automotive or light marine battery.

Features
Among its many features, the SC-6500A has a 65 Amp Engine Start for emergency starting and a 10/20 Amp Fast Charge mode, which is a self-adjusting, variable charge rate for everyday charging needs and maintaining your battery in peak condition. While the unit charges, it automatically desulfates and restores the battery. There is also a 2 Amp Slow Charge setting for charging and maintaining small batteries such as motorcycle, ATV, snowmobile, and lawn tractor batteries.

Safe and Convenient
This unit has 125 amp, sure-grip clamps for top and side-mounted battery posts, an electronic touchpad control, easy-to-select switches for the digital display, battery type or charge/start functions. Choose from 12 volt regular automotive, 12 volt deep-cycle, 12 volt AGM, or gel cell batteries. Meanwhile, a built-in digital voltmeter/tester helps diagnose problems.

The SC-6500A has a black and gray polypropylene case with a retractable handle, as well as push button controls to select and display charge rates (65 Amp engine start, 20/10 Amp, 2 Amp) and battery type. There is also a retractable handle for easy portability and a cord wrap on back.

4 out of 5 stars SC-6500A Battery Charger   December 28, 2008
This is a compact unit that seems to be working the way I hoped it would.
Like the flatter horizontal shape that will not tip over like previous ones that I have had.
Not fully sure if if is charging batteries to "full" charge, though.
I use it mainly on sealed deep cycle RV batteries and do not travel in winter months so will have a better perspective come warmer weather



5 out of 5 stars Schumacher SC-6500A review   December 18, 2008

My Schumacher battery charger, vintage early 70's finally died. So obviously my first choice was to get another Schumacher. With a little online research I settled on the SC-6500A. This is really the largest capacity I needed. I was very impressed with the size and light weight. The performance has been flawless. I thought I had a truck battery that was not salvageable, but this charger performed the desulfate step and then the battery fully charged. Same thing for a smaller old motorcycle battery that I thought I was going to have to replace. Outstanding product!!


5 out of 5 stars Does the job and does it well   July 15, 2008

I purchased this to replace a cheap WalMart unit I bought years ago. I have used it on all sorts of batteries including giant diesel engine batteries, and small spiral cell Optima batteries. The jump start function also provides enough juice to get the job done for anything other than a totally dead diesel battery (but even that kicked over after a brief charge).

What can I say, it works well, charges quickly, and looks good. The price on Amazon makes it a great deal.

Unit gets a lot of use on a multitude of different batteries and has performed very well. Can't think of a job this unit couldn't perform. Again, Amazon beats everyone, in information before the sale and service after.


5 out of 5 stars Great Charger   March 28, 2008

Great charger that works very quickly. Very impressed with the lcd readouts that gave me an indication of the percent complete and the current voltage level. Charger automatically shut off when complete. Think construction of the product is very good. Overall I highly recommend this charger for its speed and effective charge that really held.
