Eliminate the #1 Cause of Premature Rechargeable Device Failures.
Start Protecting Your Battery TodayWhether it's a portable generator, laptop, flashlight, jump starter box, portable power station, or power tools, we've all got devices that we don't use daily, but we need them to be charged and ready when the time comes. Charge-O-Matic TM is the answer to the age-old problem of dead (fried / overcharged / undercharged) batteries in devices that have been left plugged in 24/7, or left unplugged for too long--resulting in permanent battery damage.
- Prevents premature battery demise and maximizes battery life span.
- Ensures devices are ready when you need them.
- Saves power by disconnecting devices when charge complete.
- Automates adherence to manufacturer battery maintenance guidelines.
- Maintains routine even after power failures.
- True "Set it and forget it" functionality.
- Use one Charge-o-matic with a power strip for multi-device operability.
- If you've been searching for a 30 day timer, a 60 day timer, or a 90 day timer, Charge-o-matic will do up to 99 days with ease.
You can read it in a Popular Science article, or in your device's owner's manual, but you'll find that leaving your device continuously plugged in is a recipe for diminished battery life span and premature failure. Leaving your device unplugged is just as bad for the battery and what's worse, your device won't be charged and ready when you need it.
Charge-O-Matic TM lets you easily, quickly, and automatically charge and maintain your devices' batteries according to manufacturer specifications for maximum life span.
Set it and forget it with Charge-O-Matic TM.

from 54 reviewsLook for a sticker over the display… remove it before anything else. Support was fantastic. The unit is great and should prolong my scooter batteries life.
Simple little device to save the batteries on all your expensive gadgets. At least it's not getting cooked 24/7 on the charger now. Great for first responders and emergency vehicle equipment
Im a streamer and I have about 30 devices that I charge using 4charging docks. I usually have to go back and forth to check on them. This charge-o-matic device has made my setup work a lot more efficiently. I simply plugged in an extension cord to extend the outlet control. Operation is super simple as there’s only 2 control knobs and they’re both labeled, or you can manually turn it on and off with the push of a button. So far I’ve been using it everyday for close to 3months and it’s been consistently working well.
This is lifesaver...or should I say electronics saver? I have my rechargeable vaccum and handheld vaccum plugged into this and it is set to charge every 2 weeks so as not to ruin the battery life on either appliance. Works extremely well and have had zero issues. Very easy to install and setup. Definately recommend and it's worth every cent. Saves on electricity also which is a huge plus!
Such a USEFUL timer that allows me to keep the batteries for my lawn equipment ready to go every weekend! I have a few batteries that i use every weekend for yard work. They lose a little bit of charge daily, but i don’t like keeping them plugged in and charging all week long. This allows me to leave them plugged in but they don’t start charging till the night before i need them! Saturday morning they are fully charged and ready to go! The charger is super easy to use…just push down on the dial and turn it to the days you want to cycle. Seems a little to easy the first time you use it…but it does it just that easy!
The Charge-O-Matic Timer / Charger (ASIN: B0C4V84N74) is a great time saving and hassle reducing tool. It is very easy and straight forward to set. Really, it would be hard to screw it up. Included in the package are printed, well written, clear and concise directions in American English. I’m not sure how to make this easier.This timer can be used for many purposes, but I have mine staged for several rechargeable battery powered tools that are used infrequently. I have two power strips connected to it that are mostly loaded with the small cube transformers. Total draw is not that much, but the timer is rated for 15amps at 125 volts, so I have plenty of power to spare.Before the Charge-O-Matic I scheduled the recharge periods in the calendar of my computer, but truthfully, I would still put it off for 1 to 2 weeks because I dreaded the task so much. Now the Charge-O-Matic is setup, the items are plugged in, and it runs automatically without my input. Nice.
The charge-o-matic timer has all sorts of uses, as it can be scheduled to turn on in intervals between 1 and 99 days, and each time it goes on, it can stay on for 1 to 99 hours. So it could be used to turn on a lamp in your home if you are away or the light on a tropical fish tank every day for 8 hours. It can charge a lithium battery-powered device (like a portable power station) every three months (90 days) to ensure it is topped up and ready for a power outage or a camping trip. I tested it by having it charge a portable power station with the setting for 1 hour every 99 days. It seems to work fine, and it turned off after 1 hour of charging, as it should. It is very easy for non-technical folks to program and use. It comes with a well-written and clear set of instructions. I highly recommend this to anyone who needs to automatically turn on and off a device for a fixed period and then repeat after a fixed number of days (or one day).
It does what it says very well. But you should communicate with the seller first if you have any questions of use. They are very helpful and explained in detail the timers cycles.
I am impressed. I had bought this for my aunt to charge her scooter then she sold it so I am now using it to run two chargers for batteries. Easy to set up, and works perfectly. Batteries no longer are getting constantly baked by the chargers.
just what i needed to my golf cart plugged in during the winter
This timer is wonderful.I use it for my Mobility Scooter. It is not good to leave the scooter on charge all the time.Batteries go bad. Now, I use this timer! I put charge time for a 14 hour charge, every 20 days.This works well when not in use. You can start a 14 hour charge, anytime you want to, if needed.
Easy to set. Used to top-off charge my e-bike battery over winter
Works great to not overcharge golf cart batteries.
Wish I had one of these years ago! Simple to set up and use. No more forgetting to charge batteries and they're dead or overcharging and they get ruined way too soon.
Make your life Charge-o-matic
"I was glad to find your product..."
I'm hearing impaired and wear hearing aids. Almost all modern hearing aids are rechargeable. Most of us who wear hearing aids keep our old pair as a backup in case one of our new aids fails, or gets lost. In the old days, we would just slip a new battery in our old aids and we were good to go. But with rechargeable aids, we need to make sure our old aids are charged. If the charge falls too low, they can reach a state where they can’t be charged and have to be sent back to the manufacturer. Most hearing aid manufacturers recommend charging them every six months. While your product only allows 99 days, that’s close enough. I now have my old aids in their charger plugged into your product, with an 8 hour charge. They just stop charging once they’re fully charged, just as they do every night in normal use. There’s no way I’d
remember to keep them charged up on my own. I was glad to find your
product on Amazon.

Stay prepared. Protect your investment.
DID YOU KNOW? Many of the devices we rely on in emergencies don't do well when left plugged in to charge indefinitely. Charge-O-Matic TM keeps your most needed devices charged in a way that meets manufacturer specifications and prevents premature battery demise.
Safely, Automatically Charge and Disconnect your E-Bike
E-Bikes
There are three main issues to protect against with modern lithium batteries found in today's e-bikes. 1. Permanent damage due to extended periods at low state of charge. 2. Reduction in battery life span due to unnecessary short cycling resulting from leaving the battery on the charger too long. 3. Fire hazard due to charge system malfunction. | Charge-o-matic easily and automatically protects against all of these issues. Simply plug your manufacturer supplied charging cord into Charge-o-matic. Turn the hours knob to the number that charges your battery to 100% and the days knob to 30 days. Now, your e-bike battery will never have a damaging prolonged under voltage condition because it will be recharged every 30 days; it will automatically be disconnected from AC voltage when the set hours have elapsed, minimizing chances of fire; and it will never be unnecessarily short cycling itself into shorter life span due to having an energized charger connected to it. Charge-o-matic turns any e-bike battery charger into a safer, more efficient charger that guards against premature battery death.
Automatic Generator Start Battery Charger
Electric Start Generators
To ensure they'll start when you need them to, most portable generators have a specific battery maintenance schedule. Generac, in their owner's manual for their XT8500EFI states that the battery should be, "Charged for 12 hours, every three months." With Charge-O-Matic, turn the hours knob to 12 hours, and the days knob to 90 days. Your generator battery maintenance schedule is done forever. Set it, forget it, and never pull a cord again.
Charge-O-Matic is the smart charger for your electric start generator.
Electric Scooter Automatic Battery Charge Maintenance
Mobility Scooter
Need a mobility scooter smart charger? It's a common complaint among motorized electric scooter users: the battery keeps dying! If you look in the manual for these units, you'll find that the charge routines required are something like 8-14 hours every two weeks, if you don't use it every day. The problem is, who remembers to plug and unplug something that frequently? No one. So the battery either gets left on charge too long, or left off the charger altogether--both of which can permanently reduce battery lifespan and charge capacity. Charge-o-matic FINALLY fixes all of that! Set the hours knob to 8 hours and the days knob to 14 days. Press 'Start' and your mobility scooter battery charge routine is automated forever because it will repeat that charge cycle indefinitely--even automatically resuming after power outages! Get ready for your scooter to function at the battery manufacturer's maximum life span instead of being dead in a few months. Oh, and what if you use your scooter more often? Any time you've just finished using your scooter, just plug it in to the Charge-o-matic and press the 'Start' button twice. It'll reset the routine using the same parameters you were using before so you're ready to go tomorrow or 6 months from tomorrow. Easy peasy.
Automatic Laptop Battery Charge Optimizer
Laptops & Notebooks
If you're a road warrior, you're using your notebook every day. For the rest of us, our laptops may see use only once in a while. According to Apple, if you're storing your computer for long term, "Do not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery — charge it to around 50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life. If you plan to store your device for longer than six months, charge it to 50% every six months."
Charge-O-Matic TM makes maintaining your laptop and notebook computer batteries easy and reliable. If your laptop charges to 50% in 4 hours, set the hours knob to 4, and the days knob to 90. Now your laptop battery will never be drained too low to permanently damage it. Set it and forget it.
Portable Power Station Charge Automation
Portable Power Stations
Whether it's a Jackery, EcoFlow, or Bluetti, LiFePO4 powered portable power stations are amazingly useful, but expensive tools. Maintain your investment by following the manufacturer's maintenance recommendations. Jackery's website FAQ says, "1. We recommend keeping the battery power above 20% when using or storing the power station regularly.
2. A fully charged battery can last for several months. However, please recharge it every 3 months to keep the battery power above 50% if you don't use it."
EcoFlow's blog states, "For long-term storage, discharge the battery to 30% and charge it to 85% every three months (products that have not been charged and discharged for more than 6 months are not covered under the product warranty)."
Anker's storage instructions for its flagship 767 PPS states, "If the power station is stored at a low capacity for a long time, lithium batteries will self-consume power which may lead to depletion of its life and a quick discharge. And often leads to poor conductivity and a reduced battery lifespan that causes the battery not to work. Check the remaining battery capacity each week if the battery level is below 30%. Please charge the power station to full again.
Remember to charge it to 100% once every three months. If you can do it once a month, it's even better."
Charge-O-Matic makes storing your portable power station to manufacturer specs easy and automatic. If your PPS takes 5 hours to charge to manufacturer spec, set Charge-O-Matic's hour knob to 5 and the days knob to 90 days. Your PPS maintenance routine is done. Forever.
Jumpstart Box Charge Timer
Jump Starters
If you've ever needed a jump start, but your jump start box was dead, you need Charge-O-Matic. Stanley recommends charging its units every 30 days. With Charge-O-Matic, turn the hours knob to 24 hours, and the days knob to 30 days. Your jump starter box maintenance schedule is done forever. Set it, forget it, and never be stranded again.
Automatic Battery Maintainer for Garmin
Bike Lights
Keep your cycling lights plugged in all the time and you'll soon find out that the batteries won't hold a charge for nearly as long. Charge-O-Matic will keep your headlights and taillights charged at the interval of your choosing, preventing damaging over-charge. With Charge-O-Matic, you're always ready to ride.
Automatic Smart Charge Timer for Cycling
Cycling Head Units

Automatic Garmin inReach Charge Maintenance
inReach
Your Garmin inReach is an invaluable tool, but you probably don't use it every day. When you need it, nothing else will do. Make sure your inReach works when you need it most. Garmin's recommendation for storing your inReach says, "...monitor and recharge batteries (30-50%) every 3 months while in storage." If it takes 3 hours to get your inReach to 30-50% charge, set the Charge-O-Matic's hour knob to 3 and the days knob to 90. Your inReach maintenance routine is done. Forever.
Automatic Smart Charger for Telescopes
Go To Telescopes
If you've invested in a telescope with onboard battery power like the Celestron Nexstar Evolution series, you might not know that page 6 of the manual states, "Do not leave the battery fully discharged or low for an extended period of time. Keep the battery charged every 3 to 6 months."
Keep your go to mount ready for action and maximize its battery life span with Charge-O-Matic. Set the hour knob to 8 hours and the days knob to 90. Your stargazing rig is well taken care of and ready for the next clear skies.
Super easy to set it. Reliable so you can forget it.
