I am assuming your are not starting this 2180 up to cut grass. I have had good success with the trickle charger (NOCO on 2182 with a car battery). the electrical system has an all weather plug for the charger wired in and you can either hook up the charger a few hours before you're going to use the tractor or just leave it plugged in all the time. I use the same charger for 4 different items - car, ZTR, side by side, and the cub. it was made to be hard wired to the vehicle I changed it so the plug is hard wired on each vehicle and I just move the battery tender around when needed. it is only 2amp
