Are you thinking about buying a battery charger that has a repair mode to fix your dead car battery? Well, watch this first because we are going to test the repair mode on a Noco Genius 5 to see if this mode will really revive a dead battery.
This option for repair option is available on both the Noco Genius 5 and 10, but not available on the 1 and 2.

I loved your thoughtful testing procedures and honest conclusions! Great video! Thank you so much. I'm using the Genius 5 for the first time. I want to asses the "repair" function myself on two older batters that I failed to keep properly charged several years, including in harsh and subzero winter temps, "foolish me". When I tested the battery in my car, the meter indicated "completely empty of charge". Since then, it would not completely recharge, but has been been starting my car "so far". We'll see if the Genius 5 can help.

Good video, thanks for the information. A question, what happens if I charge a 200ah battery with the Noco 5 (battery capacity 120ah)? Does it just take longer to load? or does it not charge completely? Thanks

@CatfishMotorsports 19 дней назад

I think it would just take longer. In theory a 20 amp charger would charge 200 AH battery in 10 hours. I don’t see why it wouldn’t still charge it, it’s just going to take 4 times as long.

Why the manual says don't leave the noco 5 charger while charging a battery? Exploding ?

@CatfishMotorsports Месяц назад

Probably just liability boilerplate. It’s meant to switch to a maintenance mode after it’s done charging which is meant to be connected long term

@@CatfishMotorsports why noco 5 doesn't have float charge ? Weird

@fasttruckman 26 дней назад

Did you check if the batteries had plenty of distilled water? Even maintenance-free batteries need water to charge.

@CatfishMotorsports 25 дней назад

One of them. I don’t remember which. Actually resulted in one of the worst scares I’ve had working on car stuff. I tried to do a battery revival with extra distilled water like a year ago. When I put the cap back on, it popped and splashed some battery acid directly into my eye. (Wear safety glasses kids). And then it didn’t actually help. Sorta soured me on the whole process lol.

You may wanna open the garage door while your engine is on.

@CatfishMotorsports Месяц назад

The fumes give me special powers…… The light behind from the open doors in bright daylight messes with the camera. I opened the door when I let it run for a while off camera. I also may have had one of the out of shot doors open even when it was only running for 20-30 seconds.

@@CatfishMotorsports - Yeah just be careful brother. Wouldn’t want to see you or that beautiful dog get sick or die for CO2. 👍🏼
