Can anyone recommend a Trickle Charger
Archie seems to be sat around a lot and I don't want the battery to go dead and Im trying to get my head around buying a solar powered trickle charger.
Are they any good? and if so what do I go for?
Thanks

I tried a solar trickle charger on the maestro but it didn't seem to work.
I have a CTEK3800 that keeps the F topped up.

Just remove the lead to the battery in that case. I have 2 cars in that state at the moment.
