Re: which charger
MIMXV looks the right advice and price. All you need is a trickle change to keep the battery up to scratch and fast chargers are a no no - can lead to battery damage on an MX5. Why spend $80 when you get something that does to the job for $50. Bursons stand by their products as well- looks a good deal that they give a disc for MX5 clubbers.

Mr RACQ sold me one and it works like a charm. Got me dead flat battery full charged up again. Now I just plug it in using the adapter that sits permanently - its like having a electric car
Solid quality and maybe cheaper to buy online too.

I run one of these as well. They are a pretty smart charger and do all sorts of fancy things to minimize calcification. I had a marine battery die in the boat a while back and I mean completely die, it wouldn't take a charge from the normal charger. Out of intetest I popped my CTek on it and it returned to a usable battery. The battery has been back in service for over a year now.
With two laps to go then the action will begin, unless this is the action, which it is.
