parking your personal vehicle at home terminal

Ok, I wasn't sure where you are parking it. I know back home one snow fall and that windshield would be covered for days without a cleaning.

This is what I'm trying out. They can be bought at several different national retail sources ...

Hey everyone- idk if it's okay to bump this old thread- but I have a related question.

My company recently added a long term storage spot for driver's personal vehicles. I parked my car there and had some battery troubles when I got home a couple days ago. Cat wouldn't start and was due for a new battery, so I put one in.. but I'm worried that being OTR for 3+ weeks at a time, I'm just going to come home to a dead battery needing a jump.

What do you all do in this situation? I was thinking I could disconnect the battery, to prevent drain. But I don't want to have to bug someone for a quick jump in case that doesn't work..

I also see there are little solar chargers mentioned in this thread (although that link is dead). Does anyone have experience with one of these?

I was also wondering if there is a small power box that could give me a quick/jump charge when needed? I'm sure there is

Any recommendations would be appreciated! In the past I always parked my car at a relatives house and just had someone run the car once a week. But I'd much rather have my vehicle gtg at the terminal- so I can use it occasionally when routed through my hometown.

 

We had assigned spaces either, your bobtail or your personal vehicle. No RV’s. We were home every weekend so not to big a deal.

 

I was looking at buying something like this...

They work great and they charge quickly. I'd do the solar charger also. Should be all you need.
