Trying to choose between this NOCO and CTEK-7002, both seem simillar, anyone used both and have opinion?(not counting 24v setting, don't need that)

If you need 24volts function or faster charge then use the larger capacity one (little more expensive) but if 6v /12v is good enough then I think it is the better choice. Little slower make your battery last longer!

The CTEK offers pulse charging, which is the coming RAGE in battery charging. Worth the extra $8 IMO I have built home made pulse chargers, and they are so much better for ALL types of batteries, except Lithium types.

I like the 24V function. I have 2 large (group 8) batteries in series so I can keep them both charged. But if you don't need an option and it saves you money then that makes the choice eaisier. Does the CTEK do de-sulfation? That's a hand feature to awaken tired batteries.

Sorry - I would not know the answer to this - its best to check with Antec's customer service to get that detail - we are just a value added reseller of the product -

Same concept, but battery tender is no where close to the excellent CTEK products. I had many problems with the battery tenders I used, including "killing" my batteries. CTEK is the only product I trust. David M's answer is absolutely accurate.

could you please check and tell me what's the rating for the external DC supply ? Vdc ? and current rating (mA)?appreciate your help.thx

Google something like 'best rated power supply 2014'. Check out a few reviews. Your power needs are also dependent on peripherals. Seasonic is well rated - I won't try to guess what your power need might be.

Hi Eric, I would find a better power supply, we installed 6 of these and 3 went out in the first month, they also onlyput out about 900ma per zone, we replaced them all with 12v 2amp single transformers on a power strip!We also only had 4-5 dome IR cameras per power supply. Rich

I bought a 750W supply to be safe. Not a big price difference and it's modular

First, you might notice these are discounted prices. The EC650LCD is normally $99.95 vs. $89.95 for the CP600LCD. However, one difference is that the EC650 only has 526 Joules surge suppression vs. 1,030 joules for the CP600 (I always get a good surge protector of 3,500 joules-plus to plug my battery backup into - 526 joules is not an abnormal range for UPS). The CP600 also has better plug distribution for transformer plugs. The EC series is the"Ecological" class while the CP Series is the "Intelligent LCD" class. On lower end UPS there may not be much difference. I have multiple UPS for the company I work for and rarely have to monitor them. We have power outages and they all do what they are supposed to do. You might look at www.cyberpowersystems.com for more detailed info.

Cooler Master has a power supply sizing utility on their website that seems reasonable -- they do have a vested interest since they sell power supplies. I am a satisfied customer only. FWIW.

I had power supply problems with mine and retuned it. Also was very disappointed with the programming software. For a little more money I found the Yaesu FT60 to be a solid choice.

The US version of the CTEK is rated, per the Operator's Manual, for 85-125 VAC, 50-60Hz power. I'm sure a version marketed by CTEK in Europe or other countries whose power systems are based on 220 VAC will have a device produced to operate on that voltage. The CTEK Multi US 300 is rated for 120 VAC only.

depends on how cheap your PSU is. If you buy a good brand you should be fine. I prefer Antec.

I was running an Antec 850W and it was fine. But, when I bought another card to run in Sli, I had to bump it up to over 1000W. I think it will all depend on what else you are running.

Better to returned it. Mine was DOA and I called customer service. First of all, the CS of this company is not really helpful. Second, they don't send technicians to fix the problem. Instead, they will require you to un-mount the circuit board to find the problem. Also, if you screw with one of the circuits, it is your problem.

I will, and like I said previously, the pcture quality is very much improved over the 55C7000, the "pin point dimming" is what makes this set an improvement. I will keep this up to date once I receive mine. Thanks.

CNET didn't go wild over the 8000's picture, and I thought it looked pretty good but wasn't any more floored by it than my own ln46c750. Obviously I'm biased at this point considering I've already made the purchase, but I think Beaver is right that the LED component to it gives you mild energy savings and perhaps a more dynamic picture. But I can tell you the c750 can go from almost too bright to quite dark. It's a significant price jump, and if you go to the ln46c750's reviews so far they are quite positive. If it helps the CNET guy who reviews a lot of the TV's said if the C750 was anything like the B750 (his favorite straight LCD tv of last year) then it's a great buy.
