Yes CTEK has different versions. Mine is Lifepo4

IMHO, the CTEKs are pretty dated. Antigravity has a line of chargers out that we use regularly here in the shop.

We keep the chargers and Antigravity chargers in stock.

Best automatic trickle chargers on the market that few people know about (so they hate what they don't understand?)

Not just dated - poor quality

Optimate is very popular on the BMW Motorrad side, as it's one of few chargers than can use/communicate with the EU DIN socket properly. Not needed on BMW vehicles since they don't use DIN.

I like large display on the Antigrativy charger makes it simple to see battery status at a glance.

Oh here we go again. You hate CTEK - we get it. The rest of the world runs on CTEKs...

No problems with CTEK here over many years with a couple of chargers. From a documentation perspective you also know what you are getting for a charge cycle and the fact that they have a spec of 4% maximum ripple, something that other manufacturers don't typically publish.
