I mentioned this yesterday in John H's Lidl screenwash thread though it deserves its own mention.
The offer starts today though I bought one yesterday evening, a day early. I was passing a Lidl and called in, the guy said that they normally would not sell in advance because it may disadvantage people who come in on the day however he also said that had a lot in stock and therefore let me have one.
It seems like a neat device and real VFM, I like the fact it has a motorcycle setting. Ony £12.99.

I think I bought its predecessor. Had to take it back as it wouldn't charge my motorbike battery. Not sure if it was actually a fault of the charger or the battery, by that I think the battery had to have a minimum voltage for the charger to work, and that might have not been the case.
Full operating instructions for the charger you've highlighted is below (obtained from their product page - www.kompernass.com/pages/index.php?lang=en )

A good bit of kit at a good price, Mine has been in regular use for a year and has 2 more years of warranty to go. I suspect that I won't need the warranty though. Unlike the CTEC that it replaced.

I already have the Aldi version and I thought I'd get another although the old car hasn't needed a charge yet over the winter.
The Lidl we go to is in Cheadle, on the way to our daughter's in Stockport.
The price ' poster ' was displayed above a large space where the chargers should have been. Assistant said they hadn't had any delivered....bums.
Went on the Daughter's and had a cuppa.......me thrutching to get away to try another branch. Eventually made it up the 7 niles of the A6 to Manchester
5 left in the branch....phew !. Pleny of broccoli there, as well !

I got one this morning, I have no intention of using it but I didnt want to be left out.
I also got the torque wrench, two of the -60 screenwash, and two non slip mats.

How do you justify a Waitrose nose in air attitude while driving an obsolete Mitsubishi ? :-)

I prefer to think of it as "well proven classical and classless engineering"

True, your kia has no class.

Treat your battery to a charge, Z, I think you will be suprised how long it takes to fully charge.

I'm feeling the same way even though I've had no battery problems for years.
Perhaps I could use it to prop open the kitchen door.
