hey guys,
just curious if you ahd any tips of keeping the gel cell battery charged.. I ahve my car parked for a few months while working on it.. I have teh factory alarm and another alarm on top of that.. obv its gonna drain the battery. but i cant start my car to charge it and i need to keep the alarm on.. Is there a battery charger is can use with the gel cell or once the battery is dead i have no choice to buy another one? thanks!

get a yellow top

 

uhhh, disconnect it....

 

lol!!

Or use a low amperage battery charger.

 

I use a normal charger with no problems. low amp is better. mine is around 6amp. I stick mine on every 1 or 2 weeks for 4-5 hours

 

Mine has like a .3 amp setting to maintain the battery.

 

Trickle charger solar cell. Like $20 :O

 

I have a 2 amp charger I use, it adds about 20$ over 6 months worth of electricity and keep the battery both thawed and charged. I bought it for $50

 

thanks!

like i said i need to keep the alarms on.. ill go buy a regular 6amp one and go at er thanks guys!

 

will the solar chargers shut off when the battery gets to 12v, or will it keep overcharging it? that would be alot better just to leave that on then having to hook one up all the time

 

One trip to autozone and they charge it for free. Ive been up there more than once with my redtop, once after leaving the dome light on and once after letting the car sit for X amount of months. If you dont have an autozone around batteries plus charges for free too.

 

get a battery maintainer. it is fully automatic and will keep the battery in best possible form.
