I think I already know what the answer will be but has anyone used one of these?
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=98358 I am thinking for a tenner you can't go wrong. I don't have power in my garage and hope this will keep my battery in good condition.

Only problem will be having to get the seat off to connect it up. I know the posh chargers come with a connector. Can you buy this seperately?

Yep, but you'll need a male & female connector. I guess Maplins would do these anyway

I have a caravan down in northern spain and i leave the battery hooked up to one of these. The battery is always good to use when we get down there. So I rate them.

Just realised these probably aren't waterproof are they? I will be sticking it on the garage roof all winter so that may damage it.

I'm sure you could put it in something transparent like a plastic container with the wire coming out of a hole sealed with silicone sealant or such like?
