Re: Battery cut-off switches?



I use a battery master switch, but I use it more for when I go to car
shows and cruise nights so I can leave the doors open and not worry
about the lights killing the battery. It is bad for the battery to
constantly kill it and charge it. This is called deep cycling and it
shortens the battery's life sigificantly. It is even worse in cold
weather because a dead battery can freeze and warp the plates inside
ruining the battery. In storage the battery should be removed and kept
in a warm place on a piece of wood and trickle charged once a month
for 1 day. BTW if you use a battery master switch unless you bypass it
for the radio you will always lose the time and the preset stations.
