Ford BMS Battery Monitoring System: How it Works, How to Properly Charge, How to Power Accessories

What I bought is a cen-tech model 59000 at harbor freight it is called a 12 volt automatic battery charger and maintainer . Thanks again

500ma is a little low for charging but may be OK for maintaining. There is some parasitic draw on the BS so power needs plus charging may be higher than this. Personally, I like one that can deliver at least 1 amp. I am a big fan of the Battery Minder.

Major, Thank you for the prompt reply. I really like the looks of your setup. I ordered the 14-4 ground lugs and they arrived in the correct package but they are much smaller than your picture. I don't know if they are mismarked or what. I had to ream one out to 19/64 to fit the stud and they fit fine between the nut and they stud lip. In the end it is good to go.
