Has anyone purchased a 110v Lithium battery charger?

[billharr]

Looking to buy a small Lithium battery charger. my new motorcycle* came with a lithium battery and I know the float on my battery tender is not the best for a lithium battery. Looked and there are a lot of options cheap to very expensive. Anyone using one they are happy with?

I'm using a NOCO 26000. Note that even this unit, rated at 26A, only pushes about 10A into my 200AH BBorn battery bank.

Nice unit but not recomended for under 50AH batteries. Bike is only 18AH.

They do make a smaller one. https://no.co/genius2

Oh, well... they have smaller models too...

I have one from Ballistic Batteries before they went out of business that works great. The only issue is that there's so little loss with a LiFePO4 battery that I only need to run the charger for an hour or so every few months if that. Honestly, if you ride it for any distance at least once a month, you probably wont need a charger.

Battery Tender 4 amp... does LiFePo4

Do you want a charger to charge a dead battery, or are you thinking trickle charge? I've been researching 50 Ah to 200 Ah batteries, and my understanding is that LiFePO4 batteries are best not kept at 100% SoC. For long term storage 50% SoC is recommended. LiFePO4
also have very low loss, so if you start your bike every 2 or 3 months, you should be fine. Do check the specs on your 18 Ah battery, though. It could have different specs than what I'm looking at.
