If the battery is showing signs of not accepting a maintenance charge, pull the maintainer, fully charge the battery with a conventional charger, and then have it load tested (with a real load test unit, not what is described above). The load test is a pass/fail test; there is no ambiguity in the results. If it is good, put the car back on the maintainer; if it is bad, put in a new battery. Leaving the car with connected to the Ctek all winter with a dying battery is not good for the maintainer, and will not recover the battery................
