Default Aldi battery charger, there Grrrrrreat

Bought one in the spring, has a trickle funtion as well. Multi-function for 12v and 6v batteries for cars and bikes.
Not only brilliant product but fantastic customer service from the makers Medion.
Had a small problem, dropped them an e-mail and within a week new unit direct from the factory in Germany.
Next time they are available, highly recommended.

I think so, they seem to do alot of stuff, satnav's, MP3's and alike.
Can't vouch for anything else, but the charger is great and the after sales service has been superior to anything else I have experienced.

I have been using one from Aldi for the past 5 winters, it's brilliant. Makes me wonder how other manufacturers can charge so much

Same as Lidl, they have bike bits sometimes, but no pattern to when the stuff is available.
