A few tips for you Dawn: - Buying the cheapest of anything is usually a false economy.
- A flat battery will draw only about 3 amps so it's pointless paying for a 10 amp charger.
- You may think that you need it only during the Coronavirus emergency but believe me, you will use it again.

Hi Simon, I totally understand that cheap isn't always the way forwards, but given the price of a C-tek and the fact I'm on 80% of what was already minimum wage then it's just not possible. The one vacuuman suggested looks a very good compromise. English sellers, good price, and it has a 4amp rating so should do the job. It is what I was looking for. I have a large and clunky charger and jump starter that is actually excellent and cost about £80 that I currently use, so this isn't for Covid - I'm looking at something that would be more of a maintainer for the MG as it doesn't come out much and I'm told the battery shouldn't just be charged, but cycled.
I shall order a Maypole later today I think. Thank you all!
