Any Battery Issues I Need To Be Aware Of?

[SpokesT]

As it's getting a bit nippy and there was a slight drag when I started this morning, I was planning to stick my Battery on my Optimate charger overnight. Do I need to disconnect it before I do this (the Optimate is designed to stay on a Battery for as long as is necessary and does my motorbike in the winter a treat) for any bizarre or obscure reason?

Your better taking it off, as thay may be small chance you may damage your ecu :D

You may just want to cable tie your terminal leads out the way, then charge in situ if you really must.

Please bear in mind Batteries will give of a small amount of gas when charging, so if it has some kind a cover

you need to remove to allow it to vent, you are probably better off removing it from the car.

When charging a batt always remove it from the car. The cars ecu can be delicate so be carful

Cool, this is the kind of info I was after.

Once again, I bow to your wealth of knowledge! I love driving my Lexus but when it comes to tech stuff I need your support!
