With the talk of hard starting in the cold, I'm giving thought to getting a Battery Tender to mount under the hood of my 2216. I have an AC outlet near the tractor for a magnetic crankcase heater, so having the AC plug from the charger accessible from under the hood might work out better than having a connector tail that attaches to the charger externally. What I'm not sure about is if the Battery Tender DC leads can remain connected to the battery while the tractor is running and charging the battery with its own system. The FAQ at the Battery Tender site doesn't seem to mention doing this.
Anyone have a semi-permanent charger wired into their battery?
