Lidl do good smart chargers for about £18 from time to time, I believe Aldi also do them. If you have deep pockets, go for C-Tek. I use a Lidl one on my Alphaline MF31-1000, does the job well. The latest one even has a voltage display.

I've just ordered a new battery ,same MF 31 1000,to replace the one I bought many years ago from battery megastore. I've had a smart charger from Aldi for years ,cost less than £13.
