Charging with a maintainer
      
      
      Just bought a C170. Is it possible to hook a battery maintainer to it through the
      cigar lighter port? It only has a 3 amp breaker 
      
      Thanks

      Dear Matronics Listers and Matronics Forums Users,
      
      Earlier this week, the database that drives the Matronics Forums System developed
      an issue.  I was on travel without myy laptop and unable to address the issue
      until today.  
      
      As of 5:30 PDT June 23, 2020, I am very happy to report it was an easy repair and
      the Forums and Email Lists are 100% back up and full online!

      Hi Ron
      
      Hmm, folks named Ron seem to be fool enough to purchase 170s! I owned a 1948 for
      19 years.
      
      To answer your question, if you have the time, a small charger is fine. I used
      a Yuasa 3 step battery charger that was 900mA. I would charge lead acid batteries
      from 5amps to 200 amps. I was deep cycling the 200 amp Gel Cell Decka batteries
      down to 60% charge. Took a while to charge, but none the less works just
      fine. 200 amps times .4 = 80 amps / .9 amps = 89 hours times fudge of lets say
      1.3 = 116 hours. If it was below 50F, takes even longer.
      
      Ron P.
