Ctek CTE-56380 Ctek Comfort Indicator Panel Adaptor

easy to install, does the job it said it would.

It's a dashboard fitting extension charging lead that enables you to plug in a Ctek battery charger without opening the battery access door or hatch. It usefully, has inbuilt LED's to tell you if your battery is charged, draining or in need of charging. It's very well made (in Sweden) and does the job well but is probably a bit ovetpriced. It is good not having to open your bonnet or caravan locker hatch to clip on the charger unit, which just plugs into it.

Bought to help show the charge without having to test the battery. It does this well but I do find that the led changes to amber within a few mins of switching off the cycler. But a good addition and good value.

I wanted to fix a permanent socket in my motor home dash for charging the vehicle battery with my CTek charger . Only thing that would do this and look good was this item . Expensive for what it is , i.e. a lead with socket on the end with three led's. Anyhow , connected the leads to my battery and I have fitted the socket in a spare switch cut out on my dash. Looks neat and I can just plus my CTek charger into it when needed , plus the three led's show my state of charge. So in conclusion , nice bit of kit but over priced for what it is

Bought the Ctek CTE-56380 after reading many, many reviews regarding trickle chargers over the several car forums I am a member of.This seemed the more popular so made the purchase. Easy to fit and works well.I also purchased the comfort indicator panel which site nicely in the grill so no need to open the bonnet (or hood if you're American) - just plug and play.I'd highy recommend one if you have an 'occassional use' vehicle.

Fitted this in my boot permanently for ease of use with my CTEK MXS 5.0 charger. What a great piece of kit. Easy to install, makes charging the car a simple plug in plug out affair now with no unsightly cables or chance of crocodile clips detatching. The indicator lights are just that..indicators, but for me the real attraction was ease of use and a way of permanently attaching charge points to the battery (that is until you want to unbolt). Highly recommended.

An Amazon offer made this an instant purchase.

I bought this lead to fit to a Landrover which gets used once a week. It helps me monitor the battery condition and top up when required. I wouldn't be without it. An excellent bit of equipment which enhances my CTEK battery charger. It is ideal for use on vehicles that are only used occasionally.
