i use the oximiser - simple really - just keeps the battery tip top - have it hung on the garage wall and then have screwed the cables into the battery so i remove my cowl and just plug it in - when the light is green it means its trickle charging - well worth it, but don't bend the plug connectors.

Controllers never work!

Got to admit I trust m&p no more than I do ebay, had some nightmares with them.


The charger unit's ok though had one for a couple of years.

The Oxford oximiser is the biggest pile of poo you can buy. I was stupid enough to hae bought two. Both have failed and gone in the bin.

replaced by a proper charger an Optimate. I would advise everyone not to touch this product. You only find out it isn't working when you actually need it

Both myself and a mate have an Oxford Oximiser. We got them at the NEC show in 2005 and mine has been used constantly through out each winter. Have not felt the need to upgrade it as it has been flawless in operation.
