Anyone know of a reasonably priced 24v charger with enough juice to start a deuce with a failing battery? I'm going to sell my deuce (as a parts truck) but it doesn't have enough juice to start it. I want to be able to have it run for any potential buyer, but I don't want/need an expensive charger that would cost more than the batteries. I've looked around but can't find any through the usual places like Autozone, Harbor Freight, NAPA, etc. Thanks.

I would just buy a good 12v charger and charge the batteries individually. Chances are you already have one of those.

I doubt you will find a 24 volt charger with boost for less than the price of batteries.
You can get a 24volt trickle charger or Deltran battery maintainer, but those too are
Over $120.00+

My 24v jumper is a 12v vehicle. I just hook cables (from 12v vehicle) up to 1 battery on the deuce for a few minutes..then switch the cables to the other battery for a bit and start it.

That's what I was afraid of...Maybe I'll try Craigslist or Fleabay and take my chances on getting something that's hot or a serial killer...

Get two 24Fs from walmart. About $50 each. Rig up two cables to a slave cable port and put em on a dolly and wheel it out to the truck when you. Need to. Attach the slave and let her rip


I can send you a slave port if you need an extra one for no charge John.

You should be able to go to your local interstate battery distribution center and ask for a couple “blemish” g31 batteries or reconditioned batteries. I have used Columbus and Circleville successfully. Total cost for 2 batteries is usually 75-100 dollars.
