Default C TEK 3300 Charging Question

Whats up everybody?

I got 2 of the C TEK 3300's for the winter months for storing my Z06 and Motorcycle, which I took out the batterys to put on the chargers in my house. I plan on having them on the chargers right next to each other and since its my first time using these chargers I wanted to make sure that wouldnt hurt anything. May be a dumb question but I dont need anything happening haha!! Thanks for any help!!

I use CTEK's on both of my corvettes, one on the motorcycle and one on the motorhome. I have never bothered to take the batteries out of any of them. I use the quick disconnects on all except the motorhome, which I wired the CTEK into and mounted the charger itself in the engine compartment. Also, the one I use is the 800 model and they work great on everything. The small does just as good as it's bigger brother.

That charger will keep your batteries in top shape. No worries to be had using it.
