I own a 2008 Porsche Cayman that sits in my garage for 2 to 3 weeks between drives. Although I was told to use a battery maintainer or risk getting a dead battery, I did not. Well, I learned the hard way and my battery did in fact die. It cost me 0 for Porsche to replace the battery and test the system. I immediately ordered this item to prevent such a thing from happening going forward. It is very simple to use…plug the charger into a standard wall outlet, the other end into your cigarette lighter outlet in the car. The wire is so thin that you can close the door without kinking the wire. I highly recommend this product to avoid the same costly mistake I made!

Paid the premium to get the Porsche brand to ensure quality proper charge for the vehicle. It simply quit working after a month leaving me with a dead battery — the absolute kiss of death to anyone with a Boxster given the issues associated with battery access. Hard to imagine a more simple electronic device. Poor quality control. A real disappointment.

Bought this for my Porsche Boxster.

Nice, compact, well build, and does the trick.

Note: it’s an original Porsche product!

This is Porsche’s latest Battery Maintainer, it is a simple and safe way to charge your battery. This gives you the option of charging through your Porsche’s cigerette lighter. You can select from a standard charging mode, or a pulse maintaining mode for while the car is in storage. This can be used to charge any battery, fron 2-120 amps. Plug it in, and forget about it!!

Review by Denesius

I am the owner of a 2005 Boxter-S, and like most owners who live in areas with inclement weather in winter, I park my car for much of the season. Even with everything off & the doors closed & windows up, the car has a significant current draw, and will deplete the battery after a week or 2. Throw in some below zero temps, and starting the car becomes a challenge. Now there are ways to preserve the integrity of the motor & everything else: fire the car up every once in a while, and drive it long enough to bring all parts up to working temperature. This will also take care of the charge in the battery. However, the slow drainage in the meantime, followed by the heavy current demand at startup will significantly shorten the life of the battery. Enter the Dual Mode Maintainer. This handy device will keep your battery topped up during the storage phase, and is convenient enough to use even during shorter periods (vacations, etc). It has a super long cord, voiding the need for additional extension cords. I checked the voltage with an accurate digital multimeter, and it maintains the battery right between 13.2-13.4volts, which should keep the cells happy for a long time. Also the unit is current limited so if it’s applied to a partially depleted battery, the charge rate is nice & slow to minimize sulfation. The only downside: if your battery is depleted to the point that it won’t start the car, plan on overnight charging. Overall- an important, reasonably priced accessory.

I was in the market for a new battery/trickle charger for my Porsche and found this online

offered by Suncoast Porsche. Their price was less than what the local dealer

was selling it for. It works as advertised and haven’t had any issues since using it. I

give Suncoast a 5 star rating for their ease of ordering and especially the fact that it

was delivered in 5 days rather than the 10 days that is normally advertised. I definitely

would order again from Suncoast Porsche.

The issue I had with this order may not be the fault of the sender. When I made the purchase, it was ordered with another item. That item was ordered to be delivered Next Day. Since I ordered both items on the same order I mistakenly thought this order was next day also. It took a long time to receive this order. Had I known it would take so long, I would have made other arrangements.
