[s-cars] battery booster

[Wylie Bean]

Yup,
The solar panel ones Audi sends over on the boat that plug into the cigarette lighter. I have one that I got back in '01. Still works.  I think the new ones plug into the OBDII port though, so if you go this route you might find an older one if the Ranger doesn't have the OBDII port,

Hi Y'all,

Got a small problem.  We have a Ford Ranger ('95 if it matters) which 
is used VERY little until hunting season comes around.  The battery 
tends to draw down to the point it won't start the engine.  I figure 
its caused by all those little parasitic loads drawing current all 
the time (clock, lock radio receivers, etc.).  I also figure a simple 
little booster charger should solve the problem.  So...

Do you have a favorite which works well for you for this purpose?

Bob
