I have a "SuperSmart" Battery Tender someone gave me several years ago. (Battery Tender 021-0123 Battery Tender Junior 12V Battery Charger)
The output is 12 VDC @ 750 mA.
My question is; Is this Battery Tender to small of a output to use for my 2011 ISC 250? My car can be parked at times for 7-9 days without being cranked. My wife goes out of town frequently. I generally take her to the company hanger and bring our Lexus home. We live in North Louisiana. It will get below freezing but not often.

I have read where a Battery Tender can extend the life of a Battery greatly. I have this Battery Tender and wanted to put it to use if it will work on a Car Battery.

Also if it will work, can I hook the clips straight to the battery?

Thanks

 

A Battery Tender is on my IS right now.
I usually use my IS on weekends only and if the weather is bad it will sit for another week or two.
In winter with snow on the roads it will sit longer.
There is a quick connect option but i still use the clips.
I have an attached garage but cold shouldn't bother the Battery tender.
I sold my '69 Corvette show car a few years ago and that Vette was on a Battery Tender all winter and all year for 15 years or so without any problem.

 

Yes just clip the alligators on the proper polarity terminals and plug the tender, leave it on and only remove it when ready to start the engine again. Never turn the engine on while the battery is being tendered!

I keep mine plugged all winter long because I don't use the car during winter unless an Indian summer occurs.

My tender is hard wired to my battery and it is small enough to keep it hidden under the engine compartment beauty covers.

This on a Auto tender not a Motorcycle one!
I do have my bikes plugged with their respective bike tenders.

 

I have the Jr also for my motorcycle and wondered if I could use it for my IS-F. I called Deltran and asked if I could use the jr and they said not to, only to use their regular one. They said the jr didn't have enough juice to charge the F

 

I have the junior. Does anyone use the Junior on there battery? The output is 12 VDC @ 750 mA. I would think it would work just not as fast since the mA ouput is only 750mA.

 

They said that the 750mA would never be able to reach the charge rate to fully charge the battery ...that is with the JR. Call them and a find out

 

I have the Battery Tender Plus 12V @ 1.25A.
