Same old crap, just another day. Everyone should just use search, same arguments, same outcomes, guess its what is called cabin fever during winter because nobody is riding so has nothing better to do  8)

Looks like Deltran may make battery chargers for BMW.

These BMW & Deltran chargers look very similar.

Noooo! Surely not a rebadged item and not built by BMW, what is the world coming too  :alas:

BMW don't make battery chargers, just rebadged Deltran ones.

Don't plug one of them in.  There will be a Big Bang.

They actually do make battery chargers.  The one I posted a photo of.  When I was on the factory tour I saw people assembling them.

Just looked at the BMW Motorrad USA Site and they show the same one as BMW UK.  The connections on the one show above is not for an accessory socket.  Is it an alternative one for cars just in the States
As DBLXX says he has seen them being assembled in the factory. .
