Darn, my riding mower wouldn't start last week, just as the grass was ready for the year's first mow.I am a single 47 year old woman who knows zilch about machinery.Since the mower wasn't making a peep when I turned the key, I went with "battery is dead".Every month over the winter I started the mower up and ran it for 5 minutes, but guess this last April freeze finally zapped it.I researched chargers and this one sounded the best for the money.Paid for it on 4/10, used supersaver shipping and got it on 4/13!My Troy-Bilt manual says to use a 12-volt charger on 6 amps for one hour.The Schumacher manual says to use this on 2 amps for 3-8 hours for riding mowers, but I went ahead and set it for 6 amps.When I plugged it in, the ammeter (never heard of that word before, but the manual told me the meter was called that) read 3 amps, which supposedly meant the battery was fully charged.Doh!!!But I went ahead and charged it for 1 hour and, Eureka, the mower started up just fine.This charger is so easy to use.I ran an extension cord out to my shed, clipped the red clip to the positive terminal, the black clip to the unpainted rear end of tractor, put the power plug in the extension cord and waited one hour.Can't beat that for simplicity.(I finally noticed I could flip the mower seat up out of the way of the top of the battery - that's how much of a novice I am.)
