using car maintainer,,,, There is a big difference in a regular Battery Charger and a Battery Maintainer. A Maintainer will keep a battery charged and can be connected full time without overcharging.

How can overcharging of a battery be prevented?
In a car, motorcycle, truck, etc., prevention of overcharging is the job of the voltage regulator part of the vehicle's battery charging system.If a simple, unregulated, battery charger accessory is used to recharge a battery, it must be disconnected as soon as charging is complete otherwise the battery will start "gassing" - giving off acid fumes along with hydrogen and oxygen gases, which is a very dangerous situation. If allowed to continue the battery would be damaged permanently and there could be a dangerous explosion.Intelligent battery chargers, which detect when the battery is fully charged, are much safer to use because they shut off the power automatically.
