I read one suggestion to hookup the charger to the garage door opener light so the charger only works when the garage door opener light is on. Good idea, but only limited application for us.
If you use a charger with one amp capacity or less, you won't have to worry about boiling off the electrolyte. Even larger smart chargers will boil off the water if one of the cells is weak.
You are right about the HF chargers. They are not worth the money.
