Talking Re: Winter Storage Checklist

Remember that a trickle charger will bake and over charge the battery totally. 1 amp per hour will toast any battery.

Battery tender is a voltage regulated charger that limits the potential and the battery sucks in as much current as it needs to rise to this limited potential, and no more. It was also know as a battery float charger as the battery floats up to the desired open circuit potential. I get them at Walmart for about 18$ and have confirmed that the output is like 13.4 volts or so. Enjoy, Woody
