Have you checked for RF noise on an HF receiver? I would hate to see a bunch
of these running in a marine if they are noisy as I suspect they be.

Most of the marine inverters spray around enough HF noise that one
more source will probably never be noticed.

One problem with that charger, cool as the switching technology is, the
warning that you can't charge a dead battery with it, which means that you
still need another charger to get it up to the minimum required level for
this charger to start working.

Maybe you ought to rat them out to the FCC. Shouldn't it be Class B, or
about as noisy as a PC?

Not made for use in the home, where the FCC really cares, I doubt it
comes under Class B.

You don't run them down until their voltage is less than 5 volts, do
you?!! Normal discharge is 50% of capacity.....unless you can afford
the monthly replacement costs, I suppose.

At the least it has to be class A. And I bet pleasure boats would be
construed as class B.
