Anyone got one or a better charger to recomend- want to buy for the weekend!

Looks pretty good and beats my knackered oldd contraption into a cockedd hat.

What does it cost?

I use one too mr_tony through the cigarette lighter and can't recommend it highly enough. I bought mine at a car show allegedly at a discount price, but for the life of me can't remember what I paid for it.

Used that exact one on my Plus 8 and never had an issue

Got mine from http://www.hamiltonclassic.co.uk/

Mine works (through cigarette lighter) and it's very small (size of a mobile phone charger) - doesnt' ahve all the fancy features though!

I use the sameone. I have a special cable & fuse to the battery woth thier special plug

Works great on my +4

I have an AccuMate 6v/12v charger which seems to do the trick. My only criticism would be that getting a good connection through the cigarette lighter socket can be a pain.

I too have a Ctek 3600. When checking the cig lighter socket I found it had never been connected! It is now...

I'm also a user of Trickle Chargers, either Brand will do the same job. Have a 'cheap' Supermarket Brand one installed on the 'Ride - On' Mower over winter and it does it's job admirably. Presumably, the more expensive one currently 'running' on Arian in her 'Mogtel' will last longer(?)

Thanks all will purchase then....
