Lobster tennis ball machines are probably the greatest and most popular brand of tennis ball machines on the market. They’re reliability and versatility make them a best seller as so many different people can use them. One of their primary features is the large lead-acid battery that gives the Lobster tennis ball machines their portability. While these are great batteries and perform quite well for long periods of time, they suffer from some limitations; namely, they are very slow at charging. So if you’re like me and are quite forgetful at times, and you don’t remember to hook up your charger to the lobster ball machine the night before so it can charge overnight, you’re pretty much out of luck. That is, unless you have the Lobster fast charger.
In addition to the fast charging times, where this charger really pays for itself is the convenience of the trickle charger. What this function does is supplies a very small amount of power to the battery to make sure that it’s always topped off. With the regular charger, it’s possible to over-charge the battery (which ruins its lifespan) so you have to leave it plugged in for a limited amount of time and remember to take it off the charger. With the Lobster fast charger, you can always leave it plugged in and it will trickle charge the battery keeping it ready for play. The best thing to do is to find a spot in your house or garage where you can store it near an outlet and just plug it in as soon as you get home from the courts.
Now for the bad news. Unfortunately the fast charger needs to be factory installed, so you’re options are limited. If you have a Lobster tennis ball machine already, you can still purchase the charger and send both to the company. Or, if you’re thinking about buying a Lobster tennis ball machine, you can order the fast charger and they’ll install it before it’s shipped out.
