Well cleared out the garage this afternoon, parked the sj up for a while. Decided not to sell her, but i wont be doing anything with it this year.
Now does anyone know of a good trickle charger? Or does anyone use them? Really dont want the 6 month old battery on her to go to waste, and if i do happen to fancy getting her out every now and again the battery will be charged.

Re: Parked up!
A mate has got a porsche boxter that sits on a trickle charger.
Its like a transformer box... The kind you would get with a scalextric
Had a cigarette lighter plug to charge through

Re: Parked up!
Me, I'd get this one if you go down this route. Seem to have come down in price since I last got one. Got one of these for the bosses Bently and it works fine. Not bad when Bently wanted £800 (well that's what he told me!)for there one fitted (ha 2 wires). This model has a higher output so can also be used to charge a flat battery, ok so could the 0.8a version but would take ages...
