Dont get me wrnog, a decent, proper (not one of these s*1t 'automatic') chargers is an essential part of owning a car for those very occasional left the lights on or one time weak battery, wont start episodes,
BUT
it is NOT NOT NOT a bandaid for a weak battery or knackered alternator.
If you are that au fait with your car, you should instantly be able to hear / feel the 'engine isnt spinning over as fast as it did yesterday' signs of a weak battery and take remedial action straight away, not wait til the next morning thinking, 'oh i'll just pop the charger on it for 10mins and it'll be okay'.
Change it / fix problem right away.
