Suitable Power Supply ?

After a few 'incidents' when playing with my Nanocom ( 'Smart Key Not Present' warning followed by having to do a hard reset ) I fitted a new battery (AGM) thinking this would sort it but didn't realise how these beasts eat battery power Shocked

I thought I ought to look at a possible power supply (as recommended in these pages Smile ) and came across this on the Bay. Anyone thoughts as to suitability for keeping power up when reprogramming etc. ?
Price seems very reasonable for the spec and as it's something I wouldn't be using every day I don't want to spend a fortune.

From the looks of it I would not have thought it was a suitable means of providing a smooth source of power. Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

Thought you could have engine running for a lot of the reprogramming features so need for power supply.

Think lots use Ctek chargers not sure which models but know base one not up to job. D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST
