    Will a battery tender hurt a turn tech battery?

    I have a Moty Design for my 08 610 which I've had for a year and really like.

    Same chemistry.....Iron Phosphate........and most of these designers recommend not using a tender......for some reason.
    The battery does keep a self life charge for very long periods.

    I have the turntech in my 570 berg and I have a Moty in the TE 610. I was told not to use a tender on the Moty. But you're saying they are the same and it's ok to use a tender on the TT battery? I don't understand how it's ok for one and not the other?
