I live in the tug hill region of NY State. Long winters and lots of snow. The bike is on the charger from mid Oct. to mid March.
I have the original battery in my 07 Nomad.
Do you leave the battery in your bike year round and if so is the bike in an unheated garage?

Do you have long winters?  I live in NH and have never needed one for the 4-5 months that the bike sits.  The starting is so robust, with FI and Electronic ignition, it starts right away in the spring, unless the battery actually dies.

 Walmart sells a Shumacker charger that does the same thing for less money. I have three ,one for each of my bikes and they work great summer and during the winter layover.

I've been looking at the Battery Tender Waterproof 800 12V Battery Charger.   Anyone have this brand or a good recommendation?
