Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Also unscrew the battery caps with a large blade screw driver to check water level and fill with distilled water if needed.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link
There is little or no difference in charging time or effectiveness at the low current levels of a battery maintainer.

POST 1Original post

Hello ! I have my car in a garage under the winter period and i have bought a Cetek battery maintainer,stupid question but does it make any difference if i charge the battery directly or plug it in the ciggarette lighter ? It seems that the Porsche maintainer have the ciggarete plug to charge? Any opinions on that ? Regards !

POST 2Original post

I plug it into the cig lighter all winter long.....

POST 3Original post

It should not matter on the Porsche if it's directly on the battery or in the lighter socket. With other cars, sometimes the cig lighter is not powered when the engine is turned off. If that's the case, then you would need to connect directly to the battery .

POST 4Original post

I use it during the winter if I won't be driving for a week or so due to salt and snow on the roads. I use the Porsche part with the cig. lighter and it works just great.

POST 5Original post

Yes, there is a difference. Using the cigarette lighter plug is a lot safer, and the preferred method. There is little or no difference in charging time or effectiveness at the low current levels of a battery maintainer.

POST 6Original post

Yup! The farther away from explosive gases the better. Also unscrew the battery caps with a large blade screw driver to check water level and fill with distilled water if needed.
