Can't see why not...?? But I connect mine through the towing electrics with an adaptor they used to sell in the shop on here but that seems to be broken at the moment. Mike - MPx

That’s exactly what I do, I generally pop mine on once a week as I don’t do a lot of mileage and it gives you the opportunity to have a peak at water ect. I used the crocodile clips originally but now use the ringlet option held down by a couple of rubber gromits 2021 SVautobiography Dynamic Black ( Black wheels need to go ) 1997 C140 Mercedes Benz CL500 |

Thanks guys. Just wanted to make sure it wouldn’t mess with any of the electronic ‘giblets’ that may hide en route to the battery in the boot. |

I’d hold fire till one of the boffins confirms this to be ok, I’ve been doing it since July with no adversities to report but my wife thinks I’m a numpty so as said confirmation will be peace of mind for both of us 2021 SVautobiography Dynamic Black ( Black wheels need to go )

I've had mine hooked onto a halfords battery charger using the terminals in the engine bay for a couple of weeks recently whilst doing work on it. No issues.

If I am not using the FF for a week or so I will often plug it into the ctek using the under bonnet terminals just to keep the battery in top condition. |
