Re: Thoughts on using Battery Tenders?

Unlike the garden variety trickle charger, the Battery Tender automatically switches from full charge to a float charging mode and then monitors the battery, to prevent excessive gassing that shortens the life of the battery.

That's the #1 reason I bought a Battery Tender; anything else is just icing on the cake.

Perhaps other chargers now have similar operating characteristics, but I tend to stick with the pioneer.
