[QUOTE="yanktar, post: 1268043, member: 339"] I've had really mixed results with Battery Tenders. Weirdly, or ironically, I've had far more success with the Sears house brand of BTs. The first few Battery Tenders with the old metal case kept boiling out my batteries on my bikes and my generator. I had to replace too many batteries! The Sears Craftsmen ones I replaced them with eventually failed after a few years but never damaged a battery or boiled it. My last one is still running and I switch from the FJR to the generator every few weeks. However, I have a couple of the weatherproof models of Battery Tenders and I have had GREAT luck with them! One has be going for nearly 3 years on my FZ1. I have NO idea why some people have/had such good luck with the older BTs and I had nothing but trouble. [/QUOTE]
