Comparing NOCO Chargers and CTEK Chargers

Question:

Hi, Im an owner of a Noco G3500. However, I recently read a review on amazon, where the guy was comparing the two charger algorithms and it says CTEK is using a superior IUoU charging algorithm, while NOCO use a less good III algorithm. So NOCO is not absolutely bad, but its not worth the value, as there are many other cheaper products that use better algorithm. Can you discuss that? Thank you

The CTEK chargers do have a more advanced charging algorithm than the NOCO chargers. I'd agree that the CTEK is superior to the NOCO but I wouldn't classify the NOCO as a bad or totally undervalued option. Different battery types prefer different algorithms. We know they work really well for a lot of people and most likely yours will continue to work great for you as well.

In the same price range as the # 329-G750 we have the # CTEK56353 which has a very similar max amperage figure as well. I have two of these chargers and they work great.
