Isn't it a battery maintainer/trickle charger you should be using instead of a charger? Need to be careful with some of the chargers as they do not have float mode or automatically switch off once the battery has reached full capacity. Some info here -> https://procarreviews.com/best-battery-maintainers/

That's exactly what the CTEK is. Probably the best brand for them. Odd they are not mentioned in that article. Suspicious.
Daytona RS6 C5 Avant. Viper'd, Billies, Waggers, MTM box brain, C6 stoppers, xcarlink, R8 coolant cap (woohoo)
///M3 E46 | XC90 (V8, natch) | Passat GTE | RR Classic V8 flapper

Wonder if CTEK aren't sold in the States then, I think I'd still choose it over any of those
