Best battery for a vehicles that sits for months?

Battery tenders are alot cheaper than a new battery. They do a great job

I thought about using tenders to keep both of my cars fresh but recently a friend of mine had one short out in his garage while it was hooked to his Camaro. He was extremely lucky that he was in the garage working on his other car when it happened. Not sure of the brand. Might have been a cheap one knowing my friend.

I've had good luck with the Battery Tender brand. I bought my dad a Snap On on years ago and that thing lasted like 10 years, plugged in for most of it.

My big issue with the shut off switch is Holley's, crappy overpriced Terminator X Max. It takes forever to learn and I don't want start over in the spring.

FYI.....the Holley EFI ECU's will not lose their tunes, settings or learn values if you take their power away.

It's all stored in NV memory (non volatile) similar to how you wouldn't lose your odometer numbers in your dash from dead battery.
