Re: battery question

Yes, you can charge battery with it hooked up.<br /><br /> No, it won't hurt your motor.<br /><br /> What I do is. Hook up battery connections first , then plug in charger/ turn on.<br /><br /> I dont like the arcing that happens when done , with charger energized.<br /><br /> Good - Luck,<br /><br /> KYHunter :)

Re: battery question

Don't exceed the amp rating of your engines charging system when charging with leads connected.
