After a recent addition to the family, my 993 turbo is gathering dust in the garage, so I was looking for some advice regarding buying a trickle charger. I need to keep the battery topped up so when I get a rare opportunity to drive it, the thing actually starts!

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
 
CTEK is a quality unit..had mine for a couple of years...cars starts first time every time !!!!! ...now touching wood !!!
 
Another vote for the Ctek. Alternatively, I could pop round and go for a drive every couple of days to keep everything in order![8D]
It seems a shame to keep a Turbo locked away.[:(]

Except that you will not have your battery in as good order unless you use a 'smart' charger' as you get the last few % from the battery that way , if you beleive the battery blurb , it works for me though.

Thanks for that - seems pretty unanimous!

You're right about it being a waste for it not to be driven though. I have been trying to sell it on that basis, but it's not really great conditions to be doing so at the moment so I'll be hanging on to it instead.
