Like to hear submissions for the best site and
connections for trickle charge for the 12V battery.
Had one suggestion to use Amphenol three pin (one
unused of course) connector on the ramp inside the cowl intake, and routed to
the Alternator.
Another suggested gluing to the oil filler access
flap, or under the cowl at that
point.
Dom,
See if your local motorcycle shop carries "Battery Tender".
See:
Or "Battery Minder". See:
I use several "Battery Tender Jr." Device for my motorcycle, tractor
and airplane if they are going to sit idle for any length of time. The pig
tail connector is located in my console glove box - handy for topping up or
maintaining the battery and useful in the winter so that I can plug in my
electric motorcycle jacket liner for a little extra warmth.
These are definitely safer than using an auto battery charger than can
damage our sealed lead acid batteries by overcharging them.
