Li-ion (lithium) battery charger

[Derbyjim]

Couldn’t find many topics on these so which battery charger is everyone using?

Do you just plug in and set to a recondition type charge like normal acid batteries or do you have to set a tolerance (I’ve heard that Li-ion batteries have a smaller charge range ).

 

Do you get a battery charge supplied with the cars that have Li-ion batteries?

 

Thanks in advance

Just as a note, the batteries aren't Li-ion, they are LiFePo4 batteries,  which are slightly different

Thank you all.... seen the optimists one which people seem to have purchased retrospectively.

 

Interesting to hear that a lot of cars came with one so I’ll ask about that as my enquiries progress.

I meant Optimate!

 

Optimist is what you need to be a Lotus owner....

Will it start, what will go wrong today, will other road users see me 🙈

My 410 Exige does not seem to have a charger so is the one shown above definitely the one to purchase? Thanks in advance.

Or just get one of these - does exactly the same thing:
