Thanks for all the compliments Victor. I think you are referring to the CTEK 8 amp battery charger attached to the intake snorkel. It is used as the overnight charger for the under hood 12 volt battery. So when I go out in the morning to go to the shop both batteries are fully charged and all fluids are at 160 to 180 degrees. The batteries charge and are maintained with a "trickle" charge of 13.6 volts all night. I plug up the water and oil heaters about 2 hours before leaving.

Hope that answered your question.
