Battery Trickle Charger for a Gallardo

[thunderstarter]

Hi all, Ive just got an 06' Gallardo this week. Its going to be a weekend runner, so with that in mind can anyone recommend a good make of battery conditioner? Ideally Im after something that has a terminal connector onto the battery and then an easy plug in and disconnect. Also with the battery being in the front boot, is it possible to connect the charger and close the boot and lock the car?

Many thanks
Dan

CTEK ones are decent too.

CTEK are good and got AutoExpress product recommendation. I too own Gallardo and wondered if possible to leave it on with boot partially shut or is there an easier option?

I highly recommend CTEK, very reliable and simple to use.

The CTEK works well. It comes with some connectors that you can attach to the terminals and simply plug the charger into the socket on the end of the lead each night. The wires are thin, so you can close the bonnet too. Just remember to unplug the thing before driving off... i'm on my third in a year....
