Battery On car battery charging.

[westward10]

Now I haven't charged a car battery since my teen days but it seems our two year old car like many now are dependant on a good charge for all the functions to operate, the stop/start rarely works and the dealer who we know told me what I already knew it does not go far enough each day. They have charged it up free a couple of times but I now have a so called smart charger so the question is can I charge it without disconnecting the battery as I am seeing different views on this. The instructions are good as useless and the handbook for the car makes no mention.

The intention was a Focus RS but I compromised as my girlfriend predominantly drives it but in hindsight the Fiesta was probably the best move, she is country bred and considers the lanes as race tracks she drives at 70+ with no concern whatsoever but put her on a motorway she sweats.
