I do have a battery maintainer that you plug in the wall have quite a few of them I use them to keep the kids atv battery's maintained while sitting for long periods could I use that?
Yes, although it may take a while to recharge the battery.
TreeSeeker is right, the converter (power supply) could very well boil the battery dry.
Leeann has a combination power converter/battery charger/maintainer.
If yours is just a converter, you need a separate battery charger/maintainer (AND the converter and battery should be on switch that only allows one to provide power at a time ... see my posts on switches ... one diagram shows using an ON-ON switch for this purpose.)
