Tracy, as the picture tell, this not a trickle charger but a float charger (two different beasts)
The float charger will do the job whereas the trickle one will ruin your battery in about a year.
Don't ask me how I know. Too bad Harbor Freight don't deliver in Canada.

This message is for those of you who experence long periods between flights in your aircraft. Since I am involved in so many other activities I am one of those who sometimes go for a month to six weeks before I fly my aircraft so I had a problem of the battery going dead or so weak that it would not turn the engine over. I tried to do a prop start one time and found out that with the Jabiru 3300 engine, this is impossible. Anyway I solved my problem with a small charger that stays connected to the battery all the time. I have enclosed a copy of the add from Harbor Freight catalog so you can see the price has been reduced. This trickle charger may be left on the battery all the time but there are some trickle chargers that must be watched because they are manual and will over charge and ruin the battery.
My first attempt to send this out was returned by the system as being too large because I scanned the whole page in the Harbor Freight catalog, I then tried to use the URL and that would not work so this is the 4th try and I hope it goes this time.
