Flasher long period maintenance
« on: Apr 22, 2015, 07:38 PM »
Just wondering what people do with their flashers over the summer... I've got a marcum and won't be using it until next winter. What should I leave the battery charged at for a long period of time ?

... and charge it periodically.  I plan on using mine(VX-1) this summer.

I store it where it won't get dusty and charge it once a month.

A battery tender is worth the money.

Are there different models of the Battery Tender, if so which one do you recommend?
