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.

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

Can you trickle charge a battery while its still connected to the vehicle? I charge my car every couple weeks because it dosent get used very often and always disconnect the battery before connecting the charger overnight. Seeing as you guys hardwire the chargers in permanently great idea which I may now do too it sounds like you don't need to disconnect the battery from the car first..? __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: Porsche 911 Carrera Battery Replacement and Trickle Charger Installation - 996 (1998-2005) - 997 (2005-2012) - Pelican Parts Technical Article

It is safe to connect a trickle charger that is automatically controlled based upon the battery state of charge. - Casey

Your car was designed to have a battery maintainer (not a trickle charger) plugged into the cigarette lighter socket for prolonged periods without any harmful effects. "Trickle chargers" never shut off or reduce voltage, which can cook a battery over time; battery maintainers vary the voltage and amperage input according to the battery's condition, and can be left connected indefinitely.

I have a hardwired smart charger on my car, no issues, just plug it in when I get home. Something like this one: NOCO Genius G1100 Smart Battery Charger | Canadian Tire
