Charge Question
Hi,
Can I charge two batteries at one time using a Battery Tender Trickle Charger?
If so, should I link the batteries in series or parallel?
Thanks!

Yes, I figured it out. They're T10 921's. It just threw me because I'm new to this and the Scamp site stated a different size completely. I ordered LED from Amazon.
