Tom is installing his EVR on a 5 brush powerhouse for me right now. My problem is I don't drive my "A" much and when I do it's maybe an hour every other week. Just a couple weeks ago, I had a dead battery, the engine cranks but not enough OOMPH! so I put on the battery tender, but then again I'm not in the garage long enough to stand over the charger while it's plugged in so I probably killed the battery by attempting to charge it.

Rather than figit with trying to charge a weak battery I researched the old threads about the OPTIMA and found lots of good things but then wonder what other issues might I have ????

Regarding a cheaper battery, I never thought of routine trickle charging once or twice a month as normal upkeep.....maybe that's what I never thought of doing that should be part of normal maintenance.

Tom, how often do you charge up your 10 year old battery ?? Joe and 1930Coupe I appreciate your input!!! thank you.
