While you ride, your quad’s engine charges the battery. This helps keep it fully charged at all times. However, when not being ridden, a battery’s charge naturally dissipates over time. That’s when an ATV battery charger comes in handy. It will rejuvenate a dead battery and get it back up to charge.
At Rocky Mountain ATV/MC, we carry many brands of chargers:
We also carry Battery Tender, one of the leading names when it comes to chargers. In fact, we have several Battery Tender chargers:
Battery Tender is often considered the best ATV battery charger because it makes battery maintenance a breeze. It will charge your battery, but it will not damage it by overcharging.
You can read the product description of any charger to make sure that it meets your needs and will work appropriately with your battery. You can also read customer reviews to see what others liked or didn’t like.
Aside from chargers, we also have a variety of great battery accessories to enhance your current setup:
That’s right; whatever you need to keep your quad’s battery at its best, you’ll find it right here at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC. Take a look at our selection now.

Battery technology has come a long way over the past several decades, but it still isn’t perfect, and if you don’t have a good ATV battery charger to keep topped off, you’re flirting with disappointment.
Your ATV’s battery is slowly discharging itself as we speak, leaving you with fewer cranking amps to get going when it’s time for your next ride. If you ride frequently, that’s not such a problem; your ATV’s electrical system supplies a constant charge to the battery so long as the engine is running. If you let it sit for too long, however, your battery can deplete to the point that you don’t have enough juice left to get it started.
The good news is that an ATV battery charger is not an expensive piece of equipment, and many modern chargers are endowed with advanced electronic systems that prevent overcharging, reverse polarity connection, and other potentially damaging scenarios. Some of them even come equipped with a “battery tender” function that makes long-term storage easier by topping the battery off periodically, as needed.
But the process of selecting the right ATV battery charger for your application can be daunting, so we’ve rounded up some of our favorite chargers currently on the market.
Designed for gasoline engines up to 4.0 liters, the NOCO Boost Sport GB20 is rated for 400 Amps and is the perfect portable ATV battery charger. The GB20 holds a charge for up to one year, so all you need to do is charge it up in the spring and keep it in your UTV glovebox or your ATV gear bag. It can safely jump start a dead battery in seconds, which can save your ride day.
Features include high-discharge lithium technology for safe operation, water-resistant enclosure rated at IP65, needle-nose battery clamps, micro USB charging cable, microfiber storage bag, user guide, and one-year warranty.

The Schumacher SP1297 is a 12V fully automatic battery charger and maintainer. It features clamp and ring terminal adapters that are easy to connect to your battery. Helping make the SP1297 easy to use is a microprocessor that automatically adjusts the amperage rate with multi-stage charging and float mode monitoring for both charging and maintaining your battery. As well, the charger boasts reverse hook-up protection, which means if you accidently reverse the clamps the charger won’t operate.

If you’d rather save some coin than take a bunch of bonus features you might never use, the Mroinge MBC010 is an excellent barebones budget option.
It still offers the safety and reliability of an automated four-stage charging routine, helping optimize battery energy without the risk of overcharging, and at 1 amp of current, it can fully recharge a 15 Ah battery in an estimated 16 hours, but it doesn’t include any fancy battery rejuvenation routines or 6-volt battery compatibility. Sometimes, simple does it.
Check Price
At the far end of the price spectrum from the Mroinge MBC010, we have this: the BatteryMINDer 2012 – an ATV battery charger, maintainer, and desulfator. Battery sulfation, where lead sulfate crystals accumulate within the battery, is the leading cause of premature car and ATV battery death, but the BatteryMINDer’s high-frequency pulse desulfation helps to reverse the process, recovering lost capacity on older batteries. It also uses an advanced, microprocessor-controlled seven-stage recharge routine, with ambient temperature compensation, and best of all, it can be used to maintain up to six batteries at a time, provided you spring for some extra Y-connectors.
If you keep multiple ATVs or other powersport equipment, we don’t have to tell you what a useful feature that is.

The Foxsur Multifunctional Smart battery charger is overkill as an ATV battery charger, putting out 3 amps of current, but it’s an attractive option because it offers a pulse repair function much like the BatteryMINDer 2012 listed above, for far less coin. Not quite as advanced, the Foxsur nonetheless features a fully automated recharge routine, an easy-to-read LCD screen that displays things like charge status and inside temperature, and protections to guard against overcharging, overheating, and reverse polarity. If you don’t need to tend to six batteries at once but you still want the benefit of pulse repair, it’s an excellent, low-price option. As an added plus, it’s compatible with a wide range of 12-volt and 24-volt batteries, including wet, gel, sealed, AGM, Enhanced Flooded (EFB) – even lithium and LiFePO4.

Looking for a less expensive ATV battery charger that will gladly handle both your lead-acid and lithium batteries? This reasonably priced Battery Tender Junior model has a mode for each, powered by an embedded microcontroller that ensures your battery is getting the correct level of current no matter where it is in the recharge cycle. That means it’s fully automated and guarded against reverse-polarity connections, with up to 800 mA of current to recharge most any ATV battery, lead-acid or no.

A Quick Word on Charging
Most people seldom read instruction manuals these days, but we highly recommend perusing your ATV battery charger’s literature. Not all batteries – nor all chargers – are created equal, and it’s important to understand the capabilities and risks of your equipment before you make a potentially costly mistake.
Most ATV batteries in use today are of the 12-volt variety, the same as any modern gas-powered car, but batteries can vary drastically in both capacity and composition. That can affect recharge times, as well as the maximum recommended amperage rating. The rule of thumb is try to supply no more than one amp of current per amp-hour of battery capacity, up to a hard max of 3 amps, primarily to avoid damage to the battery that can eat away at its total capacity over time. That said, many – but not all – modern chargers feature built-in over-current protection, and the best way to be sure you’re not exceeding your battery’s limits is by reading the manual.
Overcharging is another concern – at least on some “dumb” chargers that don’t have smart overcharging protections built-in. With older chargers, it used to be that if you left a battery connected for too long, it would cause the electrolyte water to overheat and evaporate into hydrogen and oxygen gas, reducing battery life and, in some cases, leading to a dangerous buildup of pressure inside the battery.
Modern chargers – including the ones on this list – have built-in protections to theoretically prevent this from happening, and evolutionary changes to battery chemistry and composition have made it less of a concern, but it’s nonetheless important to understand what your charger will – and won’t – do.
In short, read up on your ATV battery charger’s capabilities and built-in protections, try to stay within the rule of thumb with regard to current supply, and when in doubt, disconnect the charger a bit early, as opposed to too late.

Electric ATVs are rapidly gaining popularity due to their efficiency and environmental friendliness. But many riders still do not know how to charge an ATV on a battery. Improper charging reduces the battery life or the battery loses its capacity quickly. Therefore, let's figure out how to charge a children's ATV and consider the key recommendations of experts.
There are two ways to recharge the ATV battery. The first and easiest is to connect the charger to the appropriate connector. All electric cars and scooters are charged in a similar way, although not all quadrics have a similar socket.
If the ATV does not have a charging port, the rider will have to connect the battery directly to the charging station. To do this, you need:
It is important to note that lithium batteries have a charge control board. This means that after a full charge, the process stops. Although overcharging the battery is still not recommended.
Another important question many riders are wondering is how to charge an ATV battery with an in-car charger. Yes, such a procedure is possible, but you need to properly configure the charger. For recharging, you can only use devices with adjustable charging current and the ability to set its minimum level (0.5-0.7 A).
Important : The optimal current for charging the battery is 1/10 of the battery capacity (in Amps).
Each vehicle's user manual lists the optimum battery charging time.
On average, this figure is 6-12 hours. The charging time depends on the generation of the battery, its capacity and the characteristics of the charger. Don't forget to charge the battery, though. If the battery has 30-40% capacity left, the recharging time should be reduced.
But what if you don't know how long to charge your ATV battery? In this case, you need to almost completely discharge the battery and charge it for 8 hours. After that, the battery should be installed on the quadric, and the charge level should be assessed. If the indicator shows 100%, next time you need to charge the battery for 6-7 hours. In this way, you can determine the optimal recharging time.
Also remember that overcharging is the main enemy of batteries. It is strongly not recommended to leave the battery connected to the network for 15-20 hours. This leads to a decrease in battery capacity and, accordingly, a decrease in the operating time of the quadric.
Knowing how long it takes to charge an ATV, you can make a schedule for recharging it.
For example, the battery can be connected to the network in the evening or after each trip. You can also purchase a replacement battery, thereby increasing the riding time on the ATV.
The battery of any electrical equipment must be properly maintained. Violation of the recommendations may lead to a decrease in battery capacity or damage to it. To avoid such problems, it is recommended:
Separately, it is worth mentioning the "buildup" of the battery.
Immediately after purchasing the equipment, you will need to fully charge and charge the ATV several times (2-3 times).
Most riders store their bikes before winter. And in order for the device to be ready for operation in the spring, it must be properly preserved. Preparing an electric quad bike for wintering is quite simple, you just need to find a warm and dry place to store the quad.
Another important conservation point is battery preparation. Before wintering you need:
Note : If you leave the quad battery in the cold, the battery will simply "leak" and stop working.
