Same here. I would be intrigued as to the reasoning. I did a little googling
and most of the advice against starting with the battery charger connected
seemed to be grounded in misunderstandings about how electricity works. The
best answer was that if you get in the habit of disconnecting your shore power
cord, it minimizes the risk that you leave the dock with the cord still
attached.

Listers,
I’m seeing conflicting opinions on the web and would like to know from the
collected wisdom of the group.
Is it OK or not OK to start your engine while your battery charger is running?
I was surprised to see some people say it is not, as people have been
jump-starting their car engines for decades, but am interested in seeing what
you all have to say on this.
All the best,
Edd
