Battery Protector (T2)

I bought this item because I was having a problem with my old 94 Olds starting on a regular basis, nothing worse than shooting dice when it comes to starting your car. Anyway, the directions were simple enough, but because I had front mounted battery posts (GM-why did you do that anyway?) I attached the ground wire to the frame of the car and not to the ground post of the battery simply because that was the easier route to go, you have to have tiny little wrenches and tiny little hands to get to the front of that battery. I feel that the manufacturer should include a big enough solderless connector to attach to the ground post, I had to get my own and improvise (McGiver) to get it on right, anyhow-that cured the problem and the device has worked flawlessly ever since. Car starts right up every time. This device is along the "lines of the old Battery Buddy", but with the old BB, you'd have to pop the hood-reset the circuit breaker, close the hood and then re-start the car. This one is totally automatic and hands free. I give it a very good rating. Parker Diamond-Hampton, NH

This saved my butt a couple of weeks after I purchased it. As I was boarding a plane, my wife called me to say she used the remote that is comes with to reactivate the battery and start the mini-van. So there was no need to beg a neighbor to come over and try jump the battery. Oh yeah, I'm the hero!

As advertised.

Look, this might work. Mine, however, shipped without the "black engine on" cable, something which is [according to the directions] crucial to the proper working of this equipment. By the time I had time to try and install this and opened the box up, the Amazon return window was already past. I'm contacting the manufacturer to see if there's any recourse.If you do end up getting this, it might be worth your while to also pick up a battery terminal cover [to ensure your positive terminal isn't exposed], as this doesn't come with one.

Installed as directed, lasted three weeks and the remote stopped working. Purchased pack of two new 12v batteries for $8 and with new battery still not working. Finally called manufacturer and was told the alternator in my Ford pickup was causing problems and I should return the unit for a newer model replacement . That was 2 weeks ago and no sign of it since.............

Everyone should have one of these. There is no need for getting stranded. This is well worth the money! I think probably in the future these will come standard on vehicles (or should).Great Investment!!
