Product of the Year 2010

Innovation has always been at the heart of the premier prize in the Product Awards and the CTEK range of battery chargers are groundbreakers. CTEK was the first to bring smart chargers to drivers in big numbers offering a compact device that could not only rescue batteries from levels conventional rivals could not touch but also condition and maintain them once revived.

They have been around for a few years but new pricing makes them a realistic prospect for even more drivers and its latest device – the XS 4003 moves the technology on even further.

The new charger can rescue long dead power packs through an innovative eight-stage process the user can monitor through a series of lights. It works brilliantly and, alongside the long running, test-winning XS 3600, the range easily merits the top award and is our Product of the Year.
