Dead Battery

Can anyone recommend a decent optimizer cos my battery doesnt like the cold

Also can anyone tell me the difference between them. Are there any particular ones to avoid?

I've always used Optimate. got two of them and never had any probs. I use the perma fix connections so I just have to plug it in when the bike rests where it usually sits. Its on 24/7 during the winter months

They can reclaim dead batteries sometimes too depending on how far they've deteriorated

I`ll second Stigs suggestion.
Never had any problems with the Optimate.

Mines called an Oximizer (I think)and seems to work ok, although I should probably have bought a new battery about a year ago
