I am looking for a solar battery tender like device for the battery that runs my dump trailer's hydraulics. I spent a few hours looking at and reading the numerous offerings which is overwhelming. I'd appreciate recommendations from those that have used a solar maintainer for a year or more with good results. I don't want to waste money on a solution that isn't the best or doesn't have a reasonable life.
I do not have expectations of the solar unit recharging the battery after a day of dumping, the trailer has onboard charging for that. I'm looking to keep the battery at potential during the long time periods I do not use the trailer. The battery has a small parasitic draw from the wireless dump control unit. Really looking to mitigate this draw plus a few watts.
Thanks in advance.
