If you have only a decent Power Supply that has an adjustable voltage & current limiting circuit, it is all you really need for most things battery maintenance if you understand batteries and are willing to monitor the different cycles manually. I keep a QJE PS 8-16 VDC & max 100 Amp and a quality DMM. Voltage dividers & setting up currents for the nonadjustable PS? Easy to learn.
A PS can pull yours or someone else's butt out of a battery jam if other equipment fails only if you know how to use it to its indecent potential. You can also give new life to old & occasionally to fully dead dead dead batteries, within and sometimes defying reason. Some batteries seem better at this, than others. Either way, it is fun to do, and it could help people out of a jam if their battery is dead dead dead, until they can travel or afford to get a new one. Then there is the chemical method...yeah I know, I'm boring as hell. But I bet you read all this...you YARCs.
