| Today, on Eastwood Garage Sam and Dennis are standing next to an awesome new Ford T-Bird! After admiring this turquoise beauty, Dennis and Sam then begin to talk about potential problems that can arise if a car is not driven every day. Dennis says that one thing that people often neglect to service is the battery, and that with all the high-tech electronics on today's cars, batteries discharge at a rate of one- to one and one-half percent per day! Sam notes that while recharging is certainly one answer, that it can also shorten a battery's life after an extended series of charges. Well, the folks at Deltran Corporation out of Deland , Florida , have the perfect solution—The Battery Tender.
According to the company website, all Battery Tender products have the five following characteristics: they are fully automatic, they deliver full output power at low AC line conditions, they draw minimal to zero current from batteries, they are compact with lightweight construction, and they offer visual indication of the progress of the battery's charge. Another great feature of the Battery Tender is that it keeps the battery's power from dissipating, and from that feature alone the Battery Tender has the ability to double and possibly triple the life of your battery!
Now the Battery Tender is not a traditional battery charger but instead contains a microprocessor that takes the battery to its proper voltage and then leaves it there. It also has several great features such as a pigtail that can be attached to the battery if it is in a place that it difficult to reach (as was the case with this T-Bird). Then, all you have to do is connect Battery Tender to the pigtail! Problem solved!
Another great aspect of Battery Tender is that it is just not for cars but for motorcycles too! In fact, if you are like Dennis and have more than one bike, they have a great new product called the Four-Bank. This product has one outlet and four outputs! Each output also has a 25-foot extension cord as well! And the best news is that Battery Tender is not just for cars and motorcycles! Battery Tender is available in a waterproof version for ATVs, boats, golf carts, planes, RVs, or tractors as well!
The Battery Tender has been awarded Rider Magazine's “Product of the Year,” and has been rated #1 by Motorcycle Consumer News . It has also been it has been endorsed and recommended but the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute (MMI) and the American Motorcycle Institute (AMI). Their warranty is also outstanding as all Battery Tenders carry a 10-year warranty! So, if you want reliability, choose the Battery Tender. When you turn the key, you know that you will be ready to cruise no matter what you are driving.
