Does anyone known if the Ctek 56-864 can be use on a yellowtop optimal battery ?

I use it on Odyssey sealed batteries regularly, and used it once on my yellowtop Optima when I ran it completely flat one day. Battery is still in my truck over a year later.

The unit can charge AGM type batteries, but I do not know if it can charge the yellowtop battery. I bought it to use with an AGM battery I expected to buy as a replacement for an aging car battery. When I received the Ctek MUS 4.3 charger, I used it to recondition the old battery. I will not need to get the AGM battery for a while.

The CTEK offers pulse charging, which is the coming RAGE in battery charging. Worth the extra $8 IMO I have built home made pulse chargers, and they are so much better for ALL types of batteries, except Lithium types.

Yes should work fine. However be careful not to over discharge the battery . Normally you would want a deep cycle type of battery. Their big and heavy. Just be careful not to take discharge below 11.5 volts

Ryobi's been using the same battery standard for over ten years. They've been through three generations of li-ion and at least one ni-cad in that time, and any tool will take any battery and vice-versa. You may need to buy a charger that will handle the new battery packs, but the entire point of their One+ system, their entire decade-long marketing campaign, is that everything works with everything. The only difference you should notice is that old tools are different colors than your new battery, and that everything works better now. Not a shill, I swear - just an *extremely* satisfied customer burned by discontinued batteries more than I like to think about.

Nope dont believe so. Too cheap for that bro. Try charging one hour after a day of messing with ppl. And the occasional over nighter to make sure its toped. Not sure if its a trickle or sensitive nihm or whatever those dewalt batteries ate with the high low memory where u can f*** em up. But any who its 20$ bro expeiremnt lol

I'd have to say do as the battery states. For if you do anything different the battery will burn out faster or take a false charge.

I've had problems with button top batteries in my mods. Flat top seems to be the only ones that work honestly. I have use these batteries in my sigelei zmax.

The tab on this device touches the two brass pins situated next to the battery, so if the battery is thicker than OEM, the tab won't reach the pins. I returned a 7200 mAh battery because of this very reason.

None. As with any battery you want to keep it charged and not deplete it under 10%

Yes. But I would think it would be a little bit of an over kill. you don't need this high price battery for that application.

Same concept, but battery tender is no where close to the excellent CTEK products. I had many problems with the battery tenders I used, including "killing" my batteries. CTEK is the only product I trust. David M's answer is absolutely accurate.

I use the Floureon 11.1v 5500 mah battery. A little on the heavy side but no problem for the 525. Over 12min. flying time. Had a problem with battery plugs until I found the Traxxas Style TRX connector. Tried the Deans plug, Banana plug and Bullet plug. The Traxxas Style TRX came out on top, in my opinion. A little soldering involved but worth the change.

I use the Ctek 7002 to maintain my 2 boat batteries over the winter. I bought it for maintenance and trickle charging as my batteries were not discharged very much when I connected them last fall. I can't speak to charging of a heavily discharged battery, but for my application the charger is slightly warm, but not what I would call hot. It sits on a fabric surface in my basement and has shown no issues.

On pg 13 of the English section of the manual it says "All types of lead-acid batteries (Wet, Maintenance Free, AGM and most GEL)." On the cover it says "For lead-acid batteries 14-150 Ah". It repeats that restriction in the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS and adds "do not use for any other purpose." In the PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS section, it says "Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only." If I were you I would check the CTEK website and look for a different charger, send them an inquiry, or call them. It appears to me the answer must be no. But I am no expert.

Optima is fine with CTEK but six batteries will probably take very long time for 5A but will work. I use OPTIMA on my truck and Jeep and works great
