    you are the first one i have seen to do negatve first. normally you attach postives first and when removing you remove negative then positive. Why did you do negative first then positive?

    I think you can charge the battery while still attached to the car or motorcycle. Just run an extension cable to it. But I have the bigger battery tender, the one with the alligator clips

    If I’m putting away my bike for winter and do this method (my shed doesn’t have an outlet) do I leave the battery in for winter months or do I have to occasionally take it off of the charger and put it back every few weeks for winter?

    If you have an outlet near your bike you can wire that connector into your battery on the bike permanently, and leave the connector hanging out or hide it in the frame. Then you can just plug it in without removing the battery.

    So does the battery tender have to be plugged in all the time? I live in Chicago and I would have to store my bike for a couple of months bc of winter also does the battery tender consume a lot of electricity?

    • @thatmotogal
      @thatmotogal  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, you have to leave it connected. It won’t damage the batter. The battery tender will feed the right voltage to the battery to keep it healthy.

    • @thatmotogal
      @thatmotogal  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh! I forgot to answer your last question. No, they do not consume a lot of electricity.

  • @IDKMYBFFDPJ

    So once the tender is full charged and the battery is in the bike, I can just leave the tender attached, correct?

      Leave the tender plugged in to the wall? Yeah, it shouldn’t be a problem.

      @@thatmotogal Maybe I don't understand, so I apologize, but my assumption is that you plug the tender into the wall, fully charge it, unplug it and then you can just attach and leave it on your bike for the long term, right?

      @jasskaranchanna8484 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The battery tender stays plugged in to a outlet while attached to your battery, as long as it is plugged into an outlet it will continuously charge and maintain your battery during storage. When you plan to ride again disconnect your battery tender from your outlet and then disconnect the tender from the battery and enjoy your ride :) read the manual to know which order to disconnect what

    • @thatmotogal
      @thatmotogal  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This is from the Indicator Light Operation Manual :)
      GREEN FLASHING - When the green light is flashing, and the red light is on, the battery is greater than 80% charged and may be removed from the charger and used if necessary. Leave the battery on charge until the green light is solid whenever possible. Once the green light begins to flash, it will remain flashing until the battery charger output current drops below the optimum recharge threshold, or until the absorption timer expires.
      I hope that’s helpful.
