Recently I have started using a battery tender that has a "desulfator" feature. I leave it hooked up to the battery tender for a week at a time, each month.
I have not experienced any slow cranks since I started using the battery tender (in my garage) for 1 week, every month. Rest of the month, I just leave my car outside the garage.
My driving is predominantly 5 mile commutes, 5 miles to work, 5 miles back home. Kids. 
EDIT: oh yes, I am on the original battery. |
I'm also in central FL. I wonder if just hooking it up to the charger overnight once a week would do the trick. AGM require higher charging voltages and I've never seen my volt meter get over around 13.5-13.8 when driving. And most of the time it's down around 12.
