I am noticing my accessory battery gets worn down a bit. It comes honestly by using LED lights without the engine on or the winch. I have a trickle charger I would like to install and I am wondering if I should attach it to the stock battery or the accessory battery. Also could I put one on each if I wanted? Thanks.

I had the small 750ma battery tender and it wasn’t enough for two, never seemed to fill the batteries. I moved up to the 5a battery tender and it is MUCH better.

OK. I actually have one of each. They aresomething they go on sale quite regularly. If I attach it to the main battery will it charge both or should I just attach it to the access battery?

I have mine attached to the start (main) battery and they remain above 14 volts continually.

I have all my accessories tied to AUX battery and the ISO saves the main battery. I use the WetSounds in the garage, so I have it attached to the AUX battery.

I have my ring attached to the main battery and it keeps both charged. I do plug my pioneer in every day after every ride.

Fyi. The CTEK MUS 4.3 is a premium smart charging unit, provided in corvettes and high end cars. Multiple settings. Using it from Sxs to tractors and deep cycle boat battery. Also got the led dash plug in and monitor. A little more than the basic battery tenders, but a good investment for all uses. It gave life back to a 2 yr. old atv battery with recondition mode. Connected to aux terminals under hood added for winch.
