Can anyone recommend me a basic trickle charger to keep my battery intact when car is not being driven, as it struggled to start the car last night after being off for about 2 weeks

apparently or Pals at super cheap have one.

yeah at least it's overtime if anything happens after 5 or over the weekend. Even if I just answer the phone it's about $250

Geeze that's not bad, I like Saturday work. Puts me on $36~ an hour. If I can do I Sunday it's gona be a good pay slip lol

Hook jumper lead a to terminal n and jumper lead b to terminal p. proceed to attach the remaining ends to your testicals.

Car should remain charged for the rest of your life ;)

Their website says that have many, but what's the difference between a $69 one and a $219 one?

Don't really wanna spend over $100 for something i wont use often

On Call, is great. I make double my salary from on call.

It would be annoying though, no beer etc

If I work on the weekend I double my pay compared to if I just did it during the week...

No beer for 7 days at a time but every time the phone rings thats $85 and if I have to even start the car that's $190 minimum.

not bad my ot rate is about $155 an hour but it doesn't really happen all that often. Wet get paid some pissy allowance too but I think it's a around 40 bucks. Not really worth the hassle, you just hope to get a few calls that don't result in going out lol

generally, the cheap ones are an outright charger only.

the expensive ones have the trickle charge function.

or, take for good drive.

then, disconnect battery.

stops anything draining.

if you want to stop it completely, will have to find whats draining power.

yeah I disconnect. However I don't have a radio or clock to worry about resetting

Though when I went to Gladstone recently I racked up 34 hours of ot in the week. The tax man came at that pay packet like a spider monkey.

I paid more in tax last year than my wife made, I want a dole bludger as my butler for that shit.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
