I bought a Schumacher Battery Companion. It is a 1.5 amp slow charge model. It is labelled as a fully automatic battery charger/maintainer with float-mode monitoring. It cost me 17 bucks at Walmart. It charged a run-down battery overnight and has been maintaining the battery ever since. There has been no heat buildup or boiling sounds. Just a quiet hum. It also comes with a second lead that you permanently connect to the battery post or any 12v+ and has a handy rubberized quick disconnect. This is in case you think the alligator clips are going to fall off or cannot easily access battery. I will install the permanent pigtail on my tractor when I get the dash installed. This way I can just plug it in and forget it. HTH Aaron
