Power your adventures with Battery Tender powersports battery chargers for ATVs, UTVs, snowmobiles, and dirt bikes. Built tough to handle the elements, our smart maintainers keep your batteries charged between rides. Explore without limits knowing your powersports machines are always adventure-ready.
12V, 800mA Lead Acid/Lithium Selectable Battery Charger
Ideal for motorcycles and powersports vehicles, the Junior 800mA charges lithium or lead-acid batteries, and can switch between AGM, lead-acid, GEL, flooded, and lithium (LifePO4) batteries.

Motorcycle batteries are smaller than automotive batteries and deplete faster from parasitic drain — the continuous low-level current drawn by the alarm, clock, and ECU even when the bike is off. A fully charged motorcycle battery can lose enough voltage to begin sulfation in as little as 2 to 4 weeks in cold storage. Sulfation — the permanent hardening of lead sulfate crystals on battery plates — is irreversible and permanently reduces battery capacity. A Battery Tender® maintainer connected from the last ride of the season through spring prevents sulfation entirely and delivers a fully charged battery every time you return to the garage.
The Battery Tender® Junior 12V 750mA is the most popular motorcycle battery maintainer in the world — compact enough to live permanently in the garage, fully automatic, and rated safe for unattended long-term connection. For modern motorcycles with larger batteries or factory Lithium (LiFePO4) equipment, the Battery Tender® Junior Multi-Chemistry 12V 1 Amp or any PowerTender® Multi-Chemistry model charges and maintains both lead-acid and Lithium batteries with the correct ISM profile for each chemistry. All models transition automatically to float maintenance when charging is complete — no manual disconnection required.
Yes — Battery Tender® smart chargers are designed and rated for continuous unattended connection through an entire storage season. ISM (Infinite Sequential Monitoring™) charges the battery fully, then switches to a precisely regulated float maintenance current that holds peak voltage without overcharging. For ATVs and UTVs with lead-acid, AGM, or Lithium batteries, the PowerTender® 3 to 5 Amp Multi-Chemistry models provide the right output for larger powersports batteries and handle both chemistries correctly with the chemistry selector set appropriately.
Modern ATVs, UTVs, motorcycles, and personal watercraft ship with either lead-acid (flooded, AGM, or sealed maintenance-free) or Lithium (LiFePO4) batteries. Lithium is increasingly factory-standard on high-performance models and popular as an aftermarket upgrade for weight reduction and cold-weather starting. Lead-acid and Lithium batteries each perform best with a charger tuned to their specific chemistry. Battery Tender® Multi-Chemistry chargers include a manual chemistry selector that switches between the correct ISM algorithm for each type — making them the ideal choice for any powersports battery, lead-acid or Lithium, new or upgraded.
Lithium (LiFePO4) powersports batteries charge at higher absorption voltages than lead-acid and require a different float maintenance protocol. Use a Battery Tender® Junior Multi-Chemistry or any PowerTender® Multi-Chemistry model with the chemistry selector set to Lithium. ISM then delivers the correct LiFePO4 4-stage charging profile: initialization, bulk charge at the correct Lithium absorption voltage, absorption taper, and the proper Lithium maintenance protocol. Never use a lead-acid-only charger on a Lithium powersports battery.
Dirt bikes and small displacement motorcycles with batteries from 3 to 14Ah: Battery Tender® Junior 750mA or 1 Amp. Standard motorcycles, powersports vehicles, and personal watercraft with batteries from 14 to 30Ah: Battery Tender® Plus 1.25 Amp or Junior Multi-Chemistry. ATVs, UTVs, and larger powersports with batteries from 14 to 100Ah: PowerTender® 3 Amp to 5 Amp Multi-Chemistry for balanced speed and ISM precision. For vehicles with factory or aftermarket Lithium batteries at any size, select the corresponding Multi-Chemistry model and set the chemistry selector to Lithium before connecting.
Connect a Battery Tender® maintainer to the snowmobile battery after the last ride and leave it connected through summer storage. ISM float maintenance prevents the sulfation that destroys batteries during long off-season storage — the primary cause of snowmobile batteries failing to start the following winter. For snowmobiles with Lithium batteries, use a Multi-Chemistry model set to Lithium. Mount a ring terminal harness permanently to the battery so connecting the charger each season takes seconds rather than requiring access to the battery compartment.
