From your information, I would say you had a battery crap out rather than a problem with the Ctek. I have multiple Ctek chargers, some for more than 20 years, and never had an issue with any of them. That said, I have seen relatively new batteries crap out in less than a year. When I replace the "new" battery with another one under warranty, everything when right back to normal.

And for the record, you cannot overcharge a battery with any Ctek model.
