I don’t know if it’s good or bad. I do know that a couple Guest chargers on my 34 failed before I began unplugging before starting, and did not fail after I began unplugging before starting. As a result, unplugging first became my practice (provided I remember). Nothing bad has happened on my 42 when I have forgotten to unplug first, but I have a much better charger now. Perhaps the Guest chargers would have failed anyway?

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.
