That's some impressive battery life! I'll never get close to that; I trade most my stuff too often.I also own and been using Ctek for many years.
I own a 35 hp F series Kubota that I leave ctek on all winter and got 15 years out of the original battery. I feel the ctek had to play a role in extending the life that far.
Agreed, it runs a lot in the summer and keeping a good trickler on it attributed a lot but still shocked it lasted that long.That's some impressive battery life! I'll never get close to that; I trade most my stuff too often.
CTEK are very good chargers, and I use them for a couple of specialty cars. But for the1500 and 8 other vehicles and implements I use the much less expensive Batter Tender Juniors.Here's what I ordered and use. Works great.

I have four cteks (lot of batteries to move them around), the oldest is 12ish and still working fine. I think you made a good choice.I ended up getting the ctek charger. Only connected a short time, but seems to doing the trick. Thanks frt the help!
