- Reviewed in Canada on April 23, 2025Verified PurchaseExcellent device! I have a 2022 GLC 300 and I don't drive it very often (maybe once a week). The 12v battery drains quickly when it's parked due to all the tech sensors and signals on the vehicle always being on. This product was so easy to install and operate. Instructions and user manual were so easy to understand. Will never have to worry about my battery again! I just leave it connected whenever I'm not going to be using my vehicle and it unhooks in 2 seconds if I need to. So great!
- Reviewed in Canada on June 10, 2025Verified PurchaseCharging used for my starting battery
- Reviewed in Canada on June 7, 2025Verified PurchaseCharger works good.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 13, 2023Verified PurchaseI've had this item for 2 years now. And I have to say it is one of the best purchases I've made.
Background: I have a older car, that's kept outside here in toronto, The winter's here can be pretty bad. My car battery is not the greatest, and I found my battery was always draining. Constantly needed a jump. I looked at the big suitcase backpack looking ones, that CAA uses, then I saw this tiny noco. I'm glad I took the risk, it's paid for itself many times.
Pros: it works. It's boosted my car, when the battery was completely dead.
-The safety feature, meaning the electrics won't flow, if it's on the wrong positive or negative, was nice for those times when I was in a rush not paying attention
-my model had a boost mode, so when I would activate it, it would force start my battery.
-very quick. I always feel a little less than human, with people judging me when I have to jumpstart my car, I'm sure nobody cares, but I still feel a bit inadequate. This jump starts my car almost immediately.
-this thing is tiny, I keep it in my glove box, it does what those huge jumper boxes that the professionals have, but since technology is so fantastic, they're able to make it so small but so powerful
-I'm really impressed with the charge, I charged it once and it lasted over a year, with monthly use. I did recharge it just to be safe at the end of the first year. But I probably could have left it and it would have worked fine, there is a battery indicator as well.
Cons: When I pull it out to help strangers restart their car, they look at me a little bit crazy thinking this little item can help. Then they ask me, where they can get one minutes later :)
Recommendation:
If you're someone who needs to jumpstart their car regularly, this thing is a lifesaver.
Not only am I able to jumpstart my car when I need it fast and safely, I was able to help other strangers, simply because there wasn't a lot to hook up. It's a small unit and putting it on someone else's car, and jumping it takes a few minutes. I would 100% buy it again.
- Reviewed in Canada on January 4, 2025Verified PurchaseWas able to charge two 6V batteries, everything was smooth and worked fine... then unit stopped charging. No matter what I try it would not charge, not recognize batteries, reverse polarity won't matter...
Still, after contacting support they sent me a brand new unit in a week or so.

- Reviewed in Canada on April 28, 2025Verified PurchaseGreat product. Connect the device to the battery before plugging it into the power for easy setup as per the manufacturer instructions and it works fine without pressing any buttons.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 16, 2025Verified PurchaseI have the NOCO battery jumper and it saved me a lot. This Noco charger is also one of the best investment if you have a car that you don't drive often or charge your dead battery. I have a few cars that I don't drive for weeks and it will not turn on, I have to jump it all the time and the amount I drive is not enough to charge the battery back. This charger will charge your dead battery right up and also maintain/topoff. I keep it plug in 24/7 on all of my cars. One of my car battery was at 11.4V it took 10 hours to fully charge to 12.6v

5.0 out of 5 stars Subaru Owners, your answer to Battery issues is here!
Verified PurchaseDid you buy a Subaru subject to the Battery Settlement? I did. Dealing with the dealerships and Subaru to get them to replace a drained battery and fix the parasitic draw issue is a nightmare, and has been for me and my family.
I did a lot of homework on this issue. I checked out endless Reddits and Youtube videos about the parasitic draw issue.
Then I discovered this baby. Even though my brand new AGM battery was completely drained after driving for ONE DAY after I installed it using the Service Manual, and even AFTER the dealership tried to tell me that the new AGM battery had to be replaced (it didn't), I purchased this as a last-ditch effort when the dealership refused to honor the settlement by telling me they could not conduct a parasitic draw test without me buying a new battery (again).
I purchased on 鶹, and it was delivered the same day.
The Instructions on use were NOT with the charger, but there is a LINK provided in the packaging that allows you to download the PDF file for the manual.
Setup was a breeze. I installed the included wall-mount holder in my garage in less than two minutes. I connected the alligator clips to the power wires on the unit. I read the manual for the proper charging instructions applicable to my battery configuration (positive-grounded versus negative-grounded: spoiler alert, almost every car has negative grounded). I attached the unit according to those instructions, selected the mode (mine was for an AGM battery), and bingo-bango, in a few hours I had nearly 50% charge on what had been an almost completely dead battery.
***a few caveats***
1. Be sure to take good care of the wires. They are not as thick as the battery wires, so they can easily be damaged.
2. The unit runs warm, so when I unplugged it, it was warm to the touch. Keep this in mind when deciding what to place it on. It has four rubber feet, but I would still be careful.
3. You can use this as a conditioner, charger or repair unit, and it will sense overcharge, and sense overheat, so it has some built in safety features that are nice, but I would still check the unit periodically.
4. I used this for a 12v car battery, but this unit can also be used for 6v batteries and other types, so be sure that you select the right mode in order to ensure proper configuration while it is charging. The lights and indicators are clear and easy to use.
Overall, I could not be happier. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product, Buyer beware US plug not UK
Verified PurchaseI love Noco prodand products, this Noco charger does not automatically switch to the battery type... so you will have to switch between normal and AGM manually.
Was planning do get 2 of these, and was glad I didn't though,, as I was surprised to find out that the plug is US not UK which the standard in GCC..
A great product nevertheless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great charger
Verified PurchaseDon’t have experience with battery tenders/chargers, this is my first. But I can say very well built compact size. Intuitive setup.
Using it to maintain my jeep wrangler AGM 70AH battery as I travel a lot don’t drive the car that much.
Update:
It has been amazing after few overnight charges the battery recuperated and seems to be back to its full swing. Starting the car now is seamless.

Original post below *
I recently purchased this and was extremely impressed by how well it worked, but then I encountered a problem.
I called NOCO and spoke with Willie G.,
the customer service representative from NOCO, he was outstanding. After I explained the issues with my NOCO Genius 5 charger—displaying a solid red reverse polarity light despite correct connections, no charging activity, cycling through all lights when unplugged, and an unresponsive mode button—he promptly provided clear instructions for returning the defective device. However, I was disappointed to learn that, despite purchasing the charger on May 7,2025, I had to cover the shipping costs for the warranty repair or replacement, which added an unexpected expense to resolving the issue with a brand-new product.
I will update this review after my GENIUS 5 is returned to me.
