It's spring, and if you haven't already done so, you'll soon be rolling your trusty ride out of the garage, dusting it off, putting the key in, giving the throttle a twist and hopefully not hearing: "click, click, click..."
Where you should be hearing the roar of your engine, maybe a backfire or two, instead you're hearing the sounds of a near-death battery. So you go back to the garage and there on a top shelf just waiting for this moment is your Deltran 2-Bank Battery Tender. With 2 banks this little guy will allow you to tend to the needs of more than one motorcycle or ATV at a time. It's lightweight (3.5 lbs) and easy to move around.
The Battery Tender 2-Bank uses micro-processor technology in a four stage charging profile to charge and balance your battery -- you cannot overcharge it. You can trickle charge your ride overnight or jump it off another vehicle if you need to get going sooner. Keep in mind that this is a standard 12-volt battery and if you are dealing with an older ride, it may have a stock 6-volt battery in it, in which case this tender may be too much.
The Battery Tender is built for safety, with reverse polarity and internal short circuit protection. At about $75, give or take a couple bucks, it's hard to justify not having one around since most motorcycles will, at some point, lose a charge unless they are ridden frequently all year around (and we can't all live in Southern California, kids).
And if you need new battery to charge, take a look at the sealed AGM varieties.
