Hiya,

Note of caution....be sure to check your charger every so often to ensure it is working properly if you plug in for the entire time... Last thing you would want is to go out come spring only to find the charger failed somehow and you have a cracked battery from freezing, or worse yet, a battery that overcharged and sent acid all over the place among other things...

I have hooked up for a few hours once a month to keep the batteries topped off, but I do not keep the charger on the entire time...just don't want to run the risk of having the charger somehow fail... I also unhook all components to the batteries so they are isolated and are not somehow drawn down and run into a bad situation of a frozen battery.
