So this whole automatic stop start, double battery issue is new to me, and this will be my first winter with the JL having bought it in June.
I live in Michigan, my wife is currently stationed in AZ, so during the winter I work remotely and spend two weeks each month in AZ, so the Jeep will be parked in my cold garage not running or being started for that length of time.
In addition, I work from my home (have been for more than 10 years now), and try to limit the amount of going out anyway, so at the most, when I’m home those two weeks a month in the winter, I probably only put about 100 miles or less a week on my Jeep.
I’ve always kept one of the “Battery Tender” smart chargers on my ‘59 pickup over the winter, and that’s worked great, should I do the same on my JL, especially for those 2 weeks I’m gone every month?
