You know the feeling - a battery that sat too long, drained by heat or cold, and won't start. This charger brings it back to life and keeps it ready with smart charging and all-weather performance, so you're never stuck with a dead battery.
You know the feeling - your car or bike sat just a little too long, and now it won't start. The MXS 5.0 is made for moments like that. Its Recond mode kicks in to help recover deeply discharged lead-acid batteries, using a specialized high-voltage pulse to break up sulfation and restore lost capacity. If your battery still has life left, this charger will find it and bring it back.
Whether it's the battery in your motorcycle, jet ski, lawnmower, or everyday vehicle, this charger is flexible enough to handle them all. With a selectable small or normal mode, it safely delivers the right output for batteries of different sizes. It's ideal for homes with multiple machines, or anyone who maintains a seasonal vehicle alongside a daily driver.
You don't need to memorize battery specs to charge safely - just choose small or normal mode, and the charger does the rest. It automatically adjusts to your lead-acid batteries, applying the correct charge profile to protect and extend battery life. If you're charging an AGM battery, like those found in many start/stop vehicles or performance brands like Optima and Odyssey, simply select the AGM mode to deliver the slightly higher voltage these batteries require. No complicated setup - just smart charging, made simple.
Your battery doesn't care what the weather's like - but your charger should. The MXS 5.0 uses built-in temperature compensation to automatically adjust charging voltage based on the ambient conditions. That means you get a full, safe charge whether it's a sweltering summer afternoon or a freezing winter morning in the garage.
Battery maintenance doesn't have to be a chore. Once you've picked the right mode, this charger runs a full charge cycle on its own, then shifts to float/pulse maintenance to keep the battery topped off. It's safe to leave connected for weeks or even the full off-season. While your vehicle sits, the charger quietly keeps your battery ready to go.
Clamps reversed? No problem. Dusty workbench? All good. The MXS 5.0 is spark-proof, reverse polarity protected, and short-circuit safe, so even if things aren't perfect, your battery and charger are still protected. And the IP65 rating means it's sealed against dust and water spray, making it just as reliable in a shed, garage, or driveway as it is on your workbench.

Hi, everyone. Steve here, with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at our CTEK MXS 5.0 Smart Battery Charger. Now, this is an AC to DC charger with 12 volts of current and 4.3 amps. Now, this is gonna revive dead batteries. It's gonna have a nice reconditioning mode built in, here, and that will restore those deeply discharged batteries, and also extend their lifespan.
It also automatically adapts to AGM, EFB, and the standard lead-acid batteries. Now, it does support small and normal batteries as well, so you can choose the right mode for your standard 12 volt batteries or smaller ones like motorcycles. And you can do that by simply hitting the mode button and those kind of things, on the front, here. You're gonna have some different wires included. This one here has got some ring terminals, and an inline fuse that you could put on the battery itself.
And then the custom deutsch connector, here, would plug into that as well. Or you got the option to use the two alligator clips, here, on the battery terminals themselves. Same thing, inline fuse, deutsch connector. And then, of course, you have a carrying bag to put all the different connectors in when you're not using 'em. Now, this is a set it and forget it kind of thing, so it's a fully automatic charging and maintenance.
All you gotta do is just connect it, and literally let it do its own thing. Now, it has some built-in safety features such as spark proof, reverse polarity protection, and also short circuit protection, as well. Folks, that's gonna wrap it up for our look together. I'm Steven. Thanks for watching.
