Q. about leaving trickle charger connected in my diesel car
Yep, I have 4 different brands. One stays on the jet-ski, one on the
race car, and the other "floats".
Don't use a straight cheapo 1-amp trickle charger. Be sure it's an
automatic, solid-state maintainer. Most are design to be mounted to the
vehicle and hard-wired o the battery. very good insurance for your
battery, particularly if it sees a lot of idle time.

Battery Tender Plus... Some Motorcycle shop on the net sells them for
$20-40 sometimes. They turn off when the battery is fully charged and
"test" the battery for trickle charging every so often and cyxle back on as
needed.
I keep mine hooked up to my motorcycle 24/7 and batteries tend to last
years.
