Which Battery Charger/Maintainer?
I am putting my car in storage for the winter and want to make sure that I correctly take care of the battery. Does anyone know the difference between the Porsche Dual Mode Battery Charger and the Porsche Battery Maintainer, and which one should be used for storage? Your help is appreciated.

You can use either one. The battery maintainer is significantly cheaper than the newer dual mode power maintainer.

i have used the cheap maintainer since 1999 and it keeps the battery in shape, one of the best products for the money.

I'm thinking of getting one too.

Lucent is selling them for 109.95 + Shipping.

How long can a new 997 battery last if the car is not driven, with the alarm on?

Off the top of my head, I think it is a $66.00 difference between the two.
