I play with lot of batteries for years.
Motorhome, boat, tractor, PWC.
Over the years learned the hard way, that when you leave electrical connected, something will go wrong sooner or later.
Bad connection here, bad connection there, charging is not engaging and discharging still works.
The best for me is pull battery clamps for 6 months storage, or pull the battery out and hook up one of those $5 maintainers on it.
Well there are some good maintainers and some bad...
The bad ones actually will put a drain on the battery...Sad but true.
One is the inexpensive Harbor Freight maintainer. Just disconnect the shore power from the maintainer and notice the led is still lit..
