The CTEK MXS 5.0 is an 8-stage battery charger that uses a patented charging process to safely and effectively charge batteries. The 8 stages are:

Desulphation: This stage removes sulphate from the battery plates, which can improve the battery's performance and lifespan.
Soft start: This stage gradually increases the charging current to prevent the battery from being damaged.
Bulk: This stage charges the battery at a high current until it is approximately 80% charged.
Absorption: This stage charges the battery at a lower current until it is fully charged.
Analysis: This stage analyzes the battery to determine if it can hold a charge. If the battery cannot hold a charge, it may need to be replaced.
RecondITION: This stage is used to recondition deeply discharged batteries. It increases the charging voltage to create controlled gassing in the battery, which helps to mix the battery acid and restore the battery's capacity.
Float: This stage maintains the battery's voltage at a constant level.
Pulse: This stage is used to maintain the battery at a high state of charge. It sends short pulses of current to the battery to keep it topped off.
