[QUOTE="poolie, post: 89165, member: 837"] 2) Yep, it's made to be permanently connected. 3) It's your call. You don't have to disconnect the motor. Since it will be turned off there's no power drain. The charger is a trickle type charger and will only charge the batteries until charged. It will then monitor the voltage and 'top it off so to speak' occasionally keeping the batteries fully charged. It's up to you whether you feel comfortable having it plugged in 24/7 in your garage/house. I have a very similar battery charger for my motorcycle and it stays plugged in 24/7 during the cold months and (knock on wood) haven't burned the house down yet. [/QUOTE]
