Hello Primers, I 've read a lot of threads about keeping our NSX batteries charged up and have purchased a Battery Tender Plus for that purpose. But none seem to address hooking the thing up to the battery directly in the car.
The instructions go into a lot of detail about how to connect up the charger. Since the battery will remain hooked up in the car the instructions say to run the negative cable to the engine block or a substantial chassis support and the positive alligator to the pos term on the battery.
My question is this: Is it ok to just hook up the alligator grips onto the battery directly neg to neg and pos to pos, or does that somehow ruin the charger, battery, electronics or all the above?
thanks for any guidance on this and sorry for the somewhat newbie question....
Chris
