A Battery MINDER will extend the life of the battery, practically indefinitely. My last standard acid-filled battery lasted 12 years using a Battery MINDer, and it only finally had to be replaced because I forgot to check the fluid and let it evaporate. Then I switched to an AGM battery and got this newer Battery MINDer to use with that, putting my old one on my truck, which I only drive sporadically.
The Battery MINDer comes with cable adapters that stay permanently connected to the terminals on the battery. All you have to do when the vehicle is not in use, is connect the adapters to the Battery MINDer, which stays connected to AC, using very little electricity. The BM comes with connecting adapters to attach to the terminal adapters. It also comes with alligator clamps for charging or conditioning a battery that does not have adapters attached.
Note that the BM is a trickle charger and is meant to maintain a battery, not to charge a completely dead o depleted battery. For example, if you buy a new battery that needs initial charging, use a standard charger to charge it, then connect it to the BM to condition it and keep it charged. A battery can be low and attached to the BM, but if it is dead or has very little charge, it won't register on the BM.
By the same token if you would like to revive an old battery that won't hold a charge due to sulfation of the plates, first charge it with a standard charger, then connect it to the Battery MINDer. It can take up to a week or longer to re-condition such a battery. You might also have to start the sulfation process manually in this situation, so read the directions.
The Battery MINDer will undoubtedly earn every penny of its cost back, and more. Before I got one I was going through a battery a year on my Harley, and the same for my truck, which I rarely used. Now I don't even go through a battery a decade! It is one of the best things I've ever purchased.

I liked the reviews on this charger, especially about desulfating. I plan to disconnect the batteries (I have two.)on my travel trailer and treat them to a charge and desulfating every month or so when I'm not using the trailer. I have new batteries now so no hurry.I'm trying to recover the 6 year old batteries I had on the trailer as we speak. Not going well. Judging from the other reviews they may be beyond recovery. I measured about 50 percent capacity when I started and after about a week and a half, I've gained about 10 percent. There has been an increase in capacity and as far as I'm concerned, that shows the charger/desulfater is doing it's job.
I really like the idea that this charger is waterproof. It rains on the Oregon Coast. LOL

I recently purchased the BatteryMINDer and I am delighted how well that it works. It is simple to install the charger leads off the battery and very easy to plug and unplug the BatteryMINDer from the car. I have a 2011 Ford Fiesta that is not used on a regular basis. It commonly sits in the garage all week and only sees the road on the weekend. In the past, the Fiesta always had a dead battery come Friday. The BatteryMINDer has completely solved that. Even after leaving the car in the garage for a month while we were on vacation, the BatteryMINDer kept the car battery fully charged and when we got back, the car started like a champ. Great product, very fair price, and I highly recommended it based on my excellent experience.BatteryMINDer Battery Charger / Maintainer with Desulphator 12 Volt 2/4/8 Amp, Model# 12248
