I know, I know. It's not that yours don't work for you, but for one, they don't work as well as a good maintainer does.

More importantly, to me anything electrical from HF is scary, and I have several smoked angle grinders to back that statement up. I do have multimeters from HF, but they aren't connected to 110 V.

As you know, I'm a firm believer in desulfation, having used BatteryMINDer, PulseTech, and Canadus products for decades. So even if your HF units are working and haven't caught on fire yet, they are still lacking that important feature.

Come to think of it, maybe I should send you one of my BatteryMINDers so you'll have a better chance of your Kubota battery (and those are very good batteries) last as long as my oldest one has?
So your answer is no, you have no data/evidence that there are any problems with the HF float charger. It took me a long time to learn that if you find something that works, stick with it.

I have and still use HF products I bought in the 80's. Back in the day, they would mail 3 11x17 sheets folded into a letter envelope, and you would call in the order.

I have a $40 name brand angle grinder and a $10 HF angle grinder, both work fine.

At least half of what HF currently sells is inferior and/or more expensive than major brands, just do due diligence to know what you are buying and make the right choice. Not difficult.

And if you come across info that a HF product is bad (or good), please share, I'd like to think we help each other here. :)

I broke 2 Craftsman pull handles by putting a 6 foot pipe on them trying to change a tractor tire. I put the pipe on a HF made in China pull handle and took all 5 lug nuts off ! True story, i still have that pull handle.
I have used a Harley Davidson trickle charger for many years, says made in China right on the back !

If it wasn't for China products, most of us would not be on this forum, assuming it existed.

No China lover here, just stating facts...

Understand that they are commies, they are willing to sacrifice their people to hard labor for slave wages just to undermine the U.S. and world economies, steal technology, control critical products, corner markets on critical materials, make loans to countries everyone knows can't be paid back, for the single long term objective of controlling the world. Their plan is sound, likely to succeed in the long term, but there is only one thing holding them back. His name begins with "T"!

All our enemies are simply waiting for the next election, and doing everything they can to make sure they never again face another "T"!!!

Enjoy the good times while we have them, eventually the libs will willingly had over the country to the commies. Won't matter to me. I'm glad we had Trump, never expected anything like this, and since I'm old, I won't be hurt much by the surrender.

You'll get no argument out of me about there zip ties. There worthless ! I also can't help if junk cars went to $100 each years ago and all of them were sold to China. So that pull handle that says made in China is actually made from Steel bought from the USA.
