First impressions? This charger arrived early—huge win! Slapped in my BLi30 battery, and it started juicing up immediately. The compact design fits perfectly on my garage workbench, and the cooling feature is a nice touch to prevent overheating during long charges.

BUT… not all rainbows here. A friend had a nightmare with their QC250 charger (DOA out of the box) and Husqvarna’s customer service ghosted them harder than a bad Tinder date. Ended up buying THIS model as a backup fix—worked, but added $50 to their already $500 frustration.

Speed-wise? It’s the tortoise, not the hare. Takes noticeably longer than pro-grade chargers (perfect for weekend warriors like me), but at half the price? Fair trade-off. The indicator light is clutch though—no guessing games on charge status.

Pro tip: Check if yours ships with the right plug! Mine had an international adapter—annoying hiccup for a ‘plug-and-play’ product.
