quick one - at Paolow towers I have a garage that sadly does not have power/light. Not a huge problem but the battery in my car is completely flat. I will therefore need to a) get the battery indoors and b) buy a battery charger that is fit for purpose.
Does anyone have a personal reccomendation for a battery charger that will charge the battery and is there a value in a battery charger that will also 'condition' a battery that has been flat for ages? Is it worth trying to get the old one up and running or just bin it and get new? It was new 4 years ago and has been used a couple of times and sat in a state of total discharge for about 2 years.
I have looked online and there seems to be quite a difference in reviews in such matters. It is a battery for a 1.6 Capri if that matters and if it is no good is there a good place to buy a replacement?
TIA!
