Questions about HD SuperSmart Battery Tender?
Hi Guys,
I used the HD SuperSmart Battery Tender for the first time today on my Sportster and I have several questions.
1. Is it okay to use an extension cord? I can't get my bike close enough to the outlet otherwise.
2. Is it normal for the charger to get hot? BTW, the solid green light was on indicating that "Monitoring Charged Battery."
3. On the charger it says "Do Not Overcharge Battery." I thought it was okay to keep the charger plugged in all the time....so how could it overcharge the battery?
Thanks guys....I'm new to all this and I don't have the instruction manual.

some dealerships go ahead and put the pigtail on the bike. The only thing I would do would be to check against the instructions that came with the battery tender to ensure that the positive and negative leads are hooked up properly to the battery before pluging it in.
