When I was turning wrenches for a living, the route Snap-On man had a large wheeled Snap-On charger YA167B on the truck he ordered in for a mechanic that was let go from a dealership. I was offered a cash price, which I jumped at. My Snappy has 420 amps as a boost start, and three levels of charge rate, slow, medium and high. Not much to go wrong inside, though mechanical indicator gauges are getting difficult to find even at DigiKey. The only want for another charger is the ability to charge 24 volt batteries. (aircraft) 35 years later, I still have the charger. Large copper winding inside, Polarity indicator on the Negative clamp, and has never given a moments worry. I've recently looked for a old school charger to leave in the storage building, but all I find are the Chinesium throw away models. I'll have to give the Associated models a look.
Absolutely! Not a fan of the new computerized chargers. All they need is a voltage selection and a amperage selection switch. My favorite charger I bought in the 80s from a school surplus auction and it was old then. Works great never fails. Another way to get a good one is yard sales and estate sales. Sometimes you can find a nice old school one in good shape.

This one does 24v. Not quite as many amps on 24.
Old school chargers last forever

Yep, sort of like the old AC buzz box welders.
Thanks for the tip on the 24v charger.

Totally agree.
