I bought mine from Battery Stuff.com. It was the Battery Tender Plus 12v. You may want to get a lighter plug adapter that allows you to hook-up the tender in the car without having to fool with the battery. I know that they sell the adapter too.

Over the last 10 years, I have been using 3 that came from Harbor Freight on their free shipping special for about 10 dollars each. All 3 have worked flawlessly on boat, RV and Corvette.
They look flimsy but they get the job done. And when you plug them into the outlet for long periods of time be sure and use an isolator plug or strip in the event that lightening deceides to visit unannounced.

Here's a link for the Battery Tender Plus (12 volt).
http://www.accwhse.com/batteryt.htm
That link didn't work, maybe this one:

OK, I give up. Just go here and look for Battery tender:www.accwhse.com
Go to "search by brand" and look under B for battery tender.

I've got a few of them, One for my car and another for my motorcycle. Haven't found anything better. Won't cook your battery and keep it fully charged. You don't even have to remove the battery from the vehicle.
You can buy it here for only $33.95 Purchase Battery Tender
