    Battery charging

    What are you guys using for battery maintenance? I have been through 2 Schumacher's in 2 years. I like to keep my mower battery and at least one spare vehicle on a trickle charge but these modern Schumacher's stop working after the warranty is out.

    I made a short video to ask about a horn problem. There are three horns on this truck but only oe has ever worked directly from the relay. The other two will work from a direct feed from the battery but not from the relay. Any idea why that would be? Electric are not my strong point BTW...
