Battery tender for start batteries?
#23

Ok gang help me out one this one. I am sure it is wrong, but,,,, although we are full time, we often are tethered to shore power for long periods of time. In these instances I keep the batteries merged, and the batteries seem to keep 13.2 to 13.4 volts. Add water every 6 months although they have never been low enough to expose lead plates .Never have an issue starting, although we try to let the engine warm up to operating temp every few weeks if we are stationary. Opinions ? Going to migrate to agm in the next few weeks for both house and engine.
