I'm thinking of building in one of those Lidl battery chargers in the old
car. So it can be left on float when not in use. The mains lead on those
is only two core and the case plastic. I was considering a Buccaneer
weather proof mains connector mounted in the body below the rear bumper.
Should the car body be connected to mains earth?

To e-mail, change noise into sound.

How about "dodgem car" style.

Park one wheel on a metal plate and some kind of ceiling contact. Ground
the plate as well.

I've got no idea how many ohms a tyre would present in circuit...but surely
a small enough figure to trickle charge a battery?
