Can 2.5-Watt Solar Battery Charger Item # PTW2997 be Used on Smaller Motorcycle Batteries
Question:
Will this charger work with the smaller batteries commonly found is things like snowmobiles, motorcycles etc? Is there anything built into the charger to stop it from overcharging a battery? Thank you.

Yes, the 2.5-Watt Solar Battery Charger # PTW2997 could be used to help charge a smaller motorcycle/snowmobile battery. In the instructions for this (attached link on page) it specifically mentions that this type of battery is compatible. It doesn't have an overcharge protection feature, but by design it won't over charge the battery as it doesn't put out a high enough voltage charge that would damage the battery once topped off.
I attached a review video for more info on this as well.

Can this be used for an AGM battery on a quad? This could be very useful while out running around the country side if so.
