Belle is plugged into a Ctek (via socket attached direct to battery) during winter. Still take her out one a week/fortnight at least, but…..
Is it safe to start her to get engine ticking over (til warmed up) whilst still connected to Ctek, without causing any damage, electrical or otherwise? Or should I continue to disconnect her?
And before anyone says anything, yes I realise that without a v v v long extension lead I am best avoiding engaging gears to drive anywhere…..
Many thanks for any thoughts that may assist a simpleton
Happy New Year to all

I have a CTEK unit and it has a quick release plug, so the wires to the terminal/chassis can be left connected permanently. I have made a hole in the battery access plate (with a rubber grommet installed) so there is no pfaffing around when I want to drive the car.
