Battery Tender

I have a Porsche Battery Tender. When I used it on my 996 Turbo it would cycle on and off.I just got the 997 Turbo and started using it and it does not cycle off-it stays on 24/7. Any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks.

Try it on your wife's car and see what happens.

If can been sitting, my guess, the battery is low on charge and the maintainer, not a charger, cannot bring it to a full charge state. I would check the water in the battery, and put on a slow charge with a battery charger, and/or have battery tested.

Wrote a negative about Deltran not communicating or sending my unit back- still no communication but today my Battery Tender Plus was delivered- no note or anything- assume it was repaired .

Bought a Ctek 7200 & all is perfect. Never again will i buy Deltran product.
