All the Porsche, Ctek, battery tender plus, are all automatic. Hook it up and forget it. I have about 15 of them plugged in around garage/warehouses and they are great.

I have the lithium-ion battery and it went dead despite being constantly charged by Ctek since new....at least so I thought.
Turns out it was not charging at all and local Porsche Centre updated software that allowed charging (via cig socket). They mentioned there was a campaign notice on this but it would have been better to have been told by Porsche before the battery failed.

Wish they were more proactive and up-to-date with such issues.

I had no idea there was an outlet in the passenger footwell!?
Guess I need to let someone else drive once in a while so I can see what's in this car!

never owned a charger.
i only drive them once every 6 weeks, and 200 miles each time.
i get new and the LARGEST HEAVIEST battery that will fit, every three years
i do not have the time nor the patience to fiddle around with charger.
if i can't get the car out on the road in 3 min, the car will be sold.
