    Default Solar Battery Charger / Tender ?

    Has anyone used one or have one? Do they even make a Solar tender?

    Reason I ask is, i'm not one of the privileged individuals who has a garage to store his ride. I'm in a driveway thats a distance from an electrical outlet.

    Could I use a Solar powered Tender to maintain the battery ?

    I had one years ago but it didn't work very well
    maybe newer tech will be better

    Check on Amazon, I just did a quick search and they are there. Have no idea about quality or how well they work.
