is my charger working?

The cigarette lighter variety of trickle chargers are also very low powered, which means it takes a lot longer to charge the battery ... which is a good thing. A rapid charge on the battery isn't nearly as good for it long-term as a trickle of power topping it off.

This reminds me that I need to put mine on the car. I'm not driving it much these days.

Me neither. I'm heading into my first winter and I think this is gonna prove real tough. Even tho i'm not putting it into hibernation, the weather in RI is pretty ugly a lot of the time(had a little snow yesterday!) and with the salt and all .....it isn't going to see a lot of daylight. But she sure stays clean and shiny!
