DenaliDan Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 soo random question for anyone that knows the answer...how much does an optima redtop run? I priced one to replace the redtop in my Miata and it was around 150. Decided against it after a chat with the original owner who put it in. Turns out the redtop had barely lasted three years. And that was while trickle-charging out of the car during the winter months. Didn't seem worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-V8V Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Trickle chargers can kill batteries. Float charger The difference between a float charger and a trickle charger is that the float has circuitry to prevent overcharging. It senses when the battery voltage is at the maximum level and temporarily shuts off the charge (floats voltage at zero or a very minimal charge until it senses that the battery output voltage has fallen, then resumes charging ). It may be kept connected indefinitely. Trickle charger A trickle charger, on the other hand, will charge no matter whether the battery is fully charged or not, so it needs to be connected and disconnected periodically. If left in place too long, it will eventually boil the electrolyte out of the cells or damage the plates. Trickle chargers will work to keep the battery charged, if used once a month or so for a day or two, but the float chargers can be left connected indefinitely without potential harm to the battery.

DenaliDan Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Thanks, C6Bill, for the clarification. Turns out it was float charged. I remember the auto-charging feature listed on the charger and that the indicator would sometimes show charging while other times not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have a short attention span because with that Viper I'd probably stay pretty satisfied for a good 10 years. In my useless news, so about once every couple months my exgf and I trade cars for the day and I change her oil and detail it for her. Today is that day and it makes me sad that people judge you based on the car you drive. She has a 335i and I went to get breakfast with some people this morning and as soon as I walk in this little coffee shop people are making comments about I must be stuck up and etc etc. First I was right there and could hear them talk about me and second they don't even know me. All this based on the car I'm driving. blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Permission is only need if you want to bring something "new" into the picture. Having said that the best way I found to hold onto my toy was to use it to propose to the GF. I took my now wifey to the top of a moutain in Vermont over looking the lake (that my parents vacation house is on) with the fourwheeler to propose!! She said yes of course and now she will never get rid of the fourwheeler!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
