Solar Powered Battery Trickle Charger 12V (7.5W)


To all my Corvette friends who Garage their vettes in Garages with no power this is what I use, just go to eBay and input this item number: 180841566084

It's quite expensive but I've found it a godsend during the really cold months Clap

MICKit's probably OK for bike batteries but not powerful enough for car batteries mine just keeps enough charge in it to start the car, a higher wattage would be better to give it a full charge.
