Battery charger question
I use a Mity Mite battery charger for the winter months as i drive all year round weather permitting.
My new plan is to mount the charger over head and lengthen the output cable about 6 foot and just drop it down to a quick disconnect.
Question is will the extra 6 foot on output cause voltage drop - heat increase? This is a trickle charger type charger.
Any input welcome.
