Hello Mike,
 That is the same model I am using. It is intended to leave it hooked up 
all the time according to the instructions that came with mine. The 
price before shipping is about the same as I paid for mine. It looks 
like UPS shipping to the lower 48 is free so that is great for you guys. 
Doesn't look like he will ship to Canada or international.
 I checked on the batteries today as it is the first of the month. The 
test showed a full charge. There was no sign of over charging and water 
level was still fine. The draw down test was also favorable so I am 
still happy with the chargers.
