Flat battery from car sitting in winter hibernation, so need a battery conditioner.





Image 1. AM Battery Conditioner, cost in excess of £200
Image 2. £35.99 from https://www.portablepowertech.com/product/ppt-5a-s...

OK doesn't have 3 pin connector, but that's a standard xlr electrical connector.

Crazy

£35.99 ? I would never buy that for my Aston, it might blow you battery!

Why don't you go for something more reputable ... like the CTEK MXS 5.0

I used an Autocare battery conditioner ( looked like the genuine AM kit save it was light silver in colour ) which cost me £12-99 from Maccess, for years on my V8 Vantage and DB9, without any problems whatsoever .

Considering they are identical on the outside, other than the Aston Martin branding, do you think the internals are different?
