Hello, I wonder if you have someone with acute hearing in the family who could test and listen for high pitched noises? I got the MP7424 and I can't stand how loud it is but my mother can't hear it at all. Also is your MP7423 made in the UK? As the MP7424 isn't and was under the impression that it was.
I have one. It's brought my Jaguar S type battery back from 11.5 after leaving interior light on, I'd given up on that 850cca battery 2 years ago but it still holds 12.4 and cranks over like it's a new one. The high pitch sound seems to be high frequency pulse charge from low/poor condition, just best guess. Definitely short list this charger.
Battery fault indicated, but then what to do On a 12v car battery showing 6v mode charging, the charger showed only 3 volts, and the instructions say to leave charger connected for 30 minutes . . . "(3) if the voltage doesn ’t reach 10.5V within 30 minutes a battery fault is indicated" (and the screen goes green) The battery was only 2 years old and under guarantee, so I took it to Halfords, who said the battery was probably OK but just needed to be left on charge longer. They put it on their fast charge workshop charger and after approx 3 hours it showed a good bit of charge. After 7 hours when I collected it, it showed 91% charge and 12.85 volt. At home I I finished off the charge at home with the Maypole, which took another 3 hours or so. The question is how can the Maypole cope when if forces a 6v mode on a 12v battery and then a battery fault is indicated which is possibly false? If you can let me know, then I'd be very grateful. Also, I think you said you leave the battery on smart charge permanently. Is that correct?
But you didnt say why to ALWAYS Connect the live FIRST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!- IE To reduce the risk of shorting/sparking/explosion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. And you didnt go through each mode as per the MODE Button !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant, informative and quickly to all the points I needed to know. Thank you. X
Thank you, Samantha! That's very kind to say
