Hello,
I am looking for a way to keep my batteries lasting longer on vehicles that I only start up every 1 to 6 months (with winters that get down to 0F for a handful of days).
One battery is currently a 12V group 31P (model number SLI31PA) on my tractor.
The other is a regular large truck battery for a F350.
I was looking up the deltran battery tender that is the most popular on amazon but several reviews say that there are a lot of lemmon's sold that appear to have faulty wiring possibly doing more harm than good.
It seems I also want to make sure there is some sort of charge controller so it's not overcharging because both these vehicles sit in strong sunlight for much of the year.
Sunway Solar also sells one that has a charge controller sold separately.
Any advice for a simple product I can put together or buy?
Thanks
