This is a shame, because it's otherwise a well-built unit. Visible condensation is present inside through the clear cover portions used to view the LEDs. A bit of rain, and high humidity this year.
It's been reliable so far, but now I can't trust it.
Does anyone know a better unit? I'm after a jump starter, not a charger. I'm not sure how the Antigravity units hold up, but water exposure killing something like this is simply not acceptable. It's not as if it was dunked. I've had it for a couple of years, but not long enough for a failure.
Let me re-emphasize: I DON'T want a charger. The device must do only one job. It's hard enough for those morons to get this right without packing all that bullshit into the case.
I'd prefer something with a warranty longer than a year, but that may be impossible these days. I don't know whether the NOCO will take a charge now, but it's irrelevant. It's been two weeks since it would, and since it functioned. That makes it useless, even if plugging it in right now works.
Cheers,
Kennith
