I use the Schumacher Electric Onboard Battery Maintainer.

I have one in all my vehicles and tractors.

It's actually saved my hide once when I left my lights on to my truck at work. I was parked next to a building, and there is an electric socket by the exit door. I got an extension cord and plugged my truck in. About an hour later it zipped it right up. Very handy gadget.

12 years and the battery in the RTV was still going strong.

18 years and the red top Optima in the TC33D was still going good.

Pretty much all of them are made in china, but they aren't all of the same quality...

I buy "Battery Tender" brand, and they have been very good lasting a long time.

BTW, the new Deka batt I put in my tractor this last summer, it had to be replaced a couple weeks ago. At least it was under warr., we will see how long this one last.

Sorry to hear that... I held out hope it was still the same quality of 15 years ago...

The only Deka retail sales here is Lowes...

It may have been a fluke, we shall see...

I bought two of them (group 31's) last summer/fall, only the one failed so far, so....
