Mackin 05-09-2006, 03:27 PM Is it a size issue? mannytranny 05-09-2006, 04:16 PM Is it a size issue? Not for most of us. Mackin 05-09-2006, 05:16 PM Not for most of us. Your right The only penis checkers around here are in the overheating LLY trucks. There is a daily length of how deep they want to pile it on till we get pissed off and start throwing some people OUT! But I would put a charger on a timer to be safe! partsguy662 05-09-2006, 05:24 PM Your right The only penis checkers around here are in the overheating LLY trucks.

RichLockyer 05-10-2006, 12:23 AM Niiiiice hijack :) :rolleyes: gschulte 05-10-2006, 04:06 PM here are some pictures after 3 hours of trying>Censored Max Power 05-10-2006, 04:09 PM Looks like you're lucky you didn't lose the whole shop. Was it is an old charger? Was it the battery the started on fire or the charger? gschulte 05-10-2006, 06:07 PM Yea I was lucky. The fire used up all the o2 in the building and extinguished itself. If it had vented , I would have lost everything. The charger was about 12 yrs old. Which one started the fire I do not know. cwq21 05-11-2006, 09:59 AM Man you were lucky! Hope you had insurance to cover your losses. Thanks for the tip. I'll never leave a charger plugged in unattended ever again. Before I would have never gave it a second thought. I have so many solvents and gasoline in my shop, it would have taken out everything. 66flh 05-11-2006, 12:07 PM Sorry to see that.I guess a little common sense goes a long ways.I will be moving all my flammables out of the shop. Diesel_Dog 05-11-2006, 09:35 PM I've got the charger hooked up to the boat battery right now, I was going to leave it on all night, but I think I'll be unpluging it tonight! Thanks for the heads up. Max Power 05-11-2006, 09:37 PM A fire investigator could likely tell you if it was the charger or the battery. It was most likely the battery that started on fire. Mackin 05-11-2006, 09:58 PM I leave one of these on my bike all winter http://batterytender.com/default.php?cPath=11_2&osCsid=470703f58290e59ae1c82cb9d909fa1e DURAtotheMAX 05-11-2006, 10:07 PM man you were lucky...Im always paranoid of doing something like that... btw I like that JD-855...awesome tractors! :) Ben Diesel_Day_Dreamin 05-12-2006, 12:10 AM Wow, That could have been way worse. Sorry to see about your losses. I've left the battery charger on several times in the past... I'll think twice next time. rolloffhill 05-12-2006, 12:56 AM I leave one of these on my bike all winter http://batterytender.com/default.php?cPath=11_2&osCsid=470703f58290e59ae1c82cb9d909fa1e Me too....I keep mine on all year long....but I don't think those are a problem...Seeing as they only charge when they need charging. You have it hard wired or do you clip it on?

ZL-1 05-31-2006, 01:34 PM gschulte, if I may ask, what brand of charger was it? Thanks. Bad enough, but it could have been worse and good no one got hurt.

The charger was 10-15 years old and I believed it charged all the time. | ||
