Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is the cheapest charger around that does the job. For small systems, it's a great solution to maintaining a battery charge. I bought this for a portable system for emergency situations. The CHARGE COMPLETE green LED lets you know when the battery is fully charged, and not all chargers have that even.
