Solar Powered trickle charger
http://www.solarshopper.co.uk/Produc...FQ4i3god6j6pDA
Hi all, would this be any good for keeping the battery charged (for those of us that don't have electricity in our garages)...?? It looks a bit...cheap?! Cheers fatneck |

Re: Solar Powered trickle charger
these were on sale in our local asda for a tenner a couple of months back.
a mate of mine bought one but in his opinion is a complete waste of time. |

I think Soulkiss had one on his bike which actually drained his battery

Re: Solar Powered trickle charger
Anyone got any experience of using one with a cage? My car gets hardly any use, but has to be parked on the road. I'm worried that in the cold weather I'll go to start it and find the battery deaded.
