Now that winter in moving into the North East I have moved the battery from my RPod 177 and placed it inside my house. Now what should I be doing during the winter to make sure that it will be ready for spring??
 Help Please!

There's not much effort required to keep your battery in shape.  Fully charge it now and then put it in a cool place (like your basement).  Fully charge it again at the middle of January.  Then, charge it again in March before you put it back on your r-pod.

My trailer is plugged in all winter - is that ok?  do I still need to move the battery?
