Battery Tenders
 
Has anyone used the CTEK Battery Charger/Tender from Mid America? How does it comapre to the "Battery Tender" brand that is sold at the NCM and at MA? CTEK write up says "no need to disconnect the battery as it will not harm electronics". This is important to me as I fried the electronics on a large horse power outboard motor a few years back because I did not disconnect the battery.

Thanks

I have the battery tender and you dont need to disconnect the battery either. It has a quick connect charging lead wire port that you tuck out of the way and plug it in as you need. You would have been fine wither way. GC

Mine is the 800mA Battery Tender. I have a heavy duty charger/de-sulfate unit when needed, but the BT is perfect to protect the battery plates from sulfate buildup and ready for a full power cranking when needed.

The unit senses charging levels and automatically folds back to a "green" trickle status. No need to disconnect the battery from the circuit, I find.
