Now I'm thoroughly confused  :smt009

Just bring over those batteries we talked about and I'll trade you for a spare charger I have.

And, battery tenders are not chargers. There is a difference. A tender is meant to keep a battery at whatever state it was left in.
Interesting, that's good to know. I bought my FF used off of eBay and it came with the battery and a Deltran Battery Tender Junior so I've just been using them together since I bought it. Seems to work fine, but then again, the battery appears to be in practically new condition and the FF requires such little power - I assume this is why the Tender has been able to keep up. I'll keep an eye out for a sale on a 1.5A smart charger in the meantime. Thanks for the heads up and useful info !

The Jr is the same as the one I mentioned above, but less output 750mA.  It too has...
Complete 4-step charging program (Initialization, Bulk Charge, Absorption Mode, Float Mode)

I have both and switch them between Jeep, RV, FF, motos...

So, which one did get? Wonder if charger for $20 vs. $60+ will make much difference.
