Default New PC545 Battery, Need Opinions on Charger/Tender

The Yuasa on my 04 DS650 BajaX is toast. I just ordered the Odyssey PC545. The next step is to purchase a battery charger/tender to keep a charge during the winter months when I fire up the Rotax every 2 - 3 weeks. I usually only fire it up between Dec - Mar to pull the kids around on their sled.

The PC545 is an AGM battery. I want to make sure I purchase the best charger/tender for an AGM battery. I never used a tender on the Yuasa.

The Supercharger Plus is endorsed by Odyssey. What about the YUA1201501? I would appreciate any comments from any forum member with experience regarding charging/tendering an AGM battery.

Regards,
-Brian

My normal battery charger has a 12volt 2 amp setting and seems to do just fine with my PC 545 and PC 545MJ that is in my Harley.

Second winter for both batteries with this charger, no issues.
