Probably being in IT for 2 decades, and spending my time documenting trees worth of shit and also being on the receiving end has taught me a thing or two. -
Why's that depressing, wouldn't it be able to go indefinitely until the battery gets old and craps itself? If it's constantly on charge/maintaining charge, won't that keep the battery healthy? -
One of my concerns initially was if something catches fire somehow.

I think I know what you mean. I saw the same thing a while back, I think either the images on the website were wrong or the model was slightly updated. It was weird when I first looked at it, same model but different looking unit.

At work we've got a smaller version of the Projecta that Duncan posted above. At home, I have an ALDI trickle charger. Ive had it for about 8 years now. Only issue with it, it's a smart charger, so if the battery is dead, it won't bring it up, but I have a variable power supply that I limit current on, and set to a max of 14.4v. once it starts charging up, I put the aldi unit on and remove the variable PSU. ALDI one will do 12v, or 6v, then has mode for "car" "motorbike", and "snow". With car or motorbike more for its internal workings, and snow is the trickle mode. I have a battery in the garage that lives on this charger for about the last 18 months now on Snow mode. When I need to charge my other batteries (eg, ones that have died in a car), I get them started and then run it on car mode. Voltage is always sitting really nice, and hasn't killed a battery yet. that charger isn't good for things like Lithium batteries etc, I'd only use it on Lead Acid.
