I have one of those too. The deltran jr is better quality and as I said before easier to use, it does cost a little more though. Both will get the job done. JMHO.

Looking at the Battery Tender web page... I see the specs...

Battery Tender Plus
12V @ 1.25A

Battery Tender Junior
12V @ 0.75A

If you are just going to use for your motorcycle then the Jr. is probably just fine. If for your car, it would take a long time to bring the battery back up if it was drained, but would still do it.

I have several of the plus models and keep both of my rides on them when not riding. Side benefit is that batteries seem to last longer as they do not deep discharge when not riding week to week if I do not get out to ride.

Just put on the Wal Mart tender yesterday. Looks like a nice unit and for $20 you can't go wrong.

Wally World for $17.00 gets the job done. At least it always starts when I hit the button.
