My 5Wing does a lot of sitting in storage for weeks at a time, it's my 7th vehicle lol. (1 year of ownership, 800mi on the odometer so far.)
There is no electrical hookup at the storage location, so a battery tender is not feasible.
On some of my other vehicles that I store, I use one of these very simple quick battery disconnects on the negative battery post to prevent the battery from running down for a few months while in storage. But, my other vehicles are a '57, a '63, an '82, and a '98. Whole different era of simpler electronics (or no electronics at all, heh.)
I understand that the 5Wing is a whole 'nother level of sophisticated circuitry versus my classics. Is there any reason it would be a terrible destructive idea to meddle with this modern car by throwing one of these on the neg battery post and cranking it off when stored?
