I'm a past customer of Keyline trickle chargers and in the past few days have been in touch with Customer Service there. I inquired as to what changes were made in their announcing they have re-done their small chargers and why they think the new versions are much better. I'm referring to the 1.25 A/Hr and 0.75 A/Hr units. Matt responded for Keyline this way:

Hi Doug,
Should be the same cost unless you purchased them directly from Amazon which marks up the price if we are not selling them directly at the time. Regarding the improvement, almost every internal component has been upgraded from new or existing suppliers. The burn in time has been tripled and the reliability is now at a .001 failure rate.
Thanks,
Matt
For anyone looking at this area, I thought this would be good information to know. Don Wilhelm kindly rewired by K2 so that I could keep the internal battery on a trickle charger. Works great.
Cheers & Merry Christmas to everyone,
Doug W5JV
