Hi, I've got some experience of this on my S1........Have the battery on a smart charger, (e.g Ctek mxs 5.0) on a timer for 4 hours per day, on an ongoing basis. 4 hours a day limit prevents frying of the cells.
I understand that principle, but I thought that Ctek's are supposed to be "conditioners" and you can leave them connected to the battery and plugged in to the mains, and go away and forget about them (long-term storage). Wouldn't a 4-hour blast once a day make the charger cycle start all over again ?
Also, has anyone found an (aftermarket ?) alternative to the Ctek leads, which in cold weather go inconveniently stiff.
