Re: [Electric Boats] Maintaining batteries over the winter

Plug a 12v lamp into a timer or use a 120v converter and use a 100w light bulb with a timer. a little math would get you in the ball park or just watch it for a day or two.

I've read that batteries need to go through a discharge/charge cycle once a month to keep them in good shape.
Does anyone know of a reasonably priced charger that will do a discharge and charge cycle for my Group 37 AGM batteries?
Thanks,
Richard
