Re: Question batteries in or batteries out
I have kept mine in an unheated and detached garage for 27 years.
I have an automatic battery charger set to low 2 Amp on a household timer running only 15 minutes per day. It's a technique in decade #3 of use now.
Never boiled out a battery or had a between season failure. But I also routinely replace mine after 3 seasons to avoid ever having problems. And (KNOCK ON WOOD) I have. I confirmed on sea tow experiences that most all batteries that have weak or wont hold much of a charge are in year 4. And a rare rare year 5 failure.
