Darn it, cigarette lighter is not “live" all the time.
Got the http://www.amazon.com/NOCO-G1100-Automa ... B004LX3AXQ with the Cig lighter adapter for my 12 Apex/ However Looks like the Apex cigarette lighter thing is not always "hot" or "live" Therefore the Cigarette battery maintainer adapter piece will not work to maintain my battery.
that sucks as itt would have been sooooooo easy using that cig adapter. Oh well time to take out the damn battery and hook it up the old fashioned way I guess.

I hard wired and put an in-line fuse in so I could use my Optimate cig. charger. Just an idea.

You should have a set of quick connect battery leads right next to your oil filler cap on the oil tank. They are covered with little rubber boots. Just clamp your charger leads on right there.
