'Charming' I'm sure.

The only reason I was open to a full d-i-y solution was the thought that I / we wouldn't be able to find an easier / commercial one.

And? Is your entire world governed by what you see here? Back to your 'closed mind' thinking.

Ah, I didn't realise your fanatic Brexiteers crystal ball was so flexible? No 'hindsight' in your world then either?

Bwhahaha. Back to your own insecurities again eh? ;-(

*Your* mud ... I have it very clear ...

Why? Asking such questions here is very much part of being open to all sorts of suggestions. You know you can stick to not answering peoples questions on other media you know? No need to read anything I type or pretending to understand / answer it?

Thanks. ;-)

Another penny nearly (but not) dropped for you eh! Hopefully you

*will* get there in the end. ;-)

T i m formulated the question :

Rather than getting embroiled in an endless exchange with him, wasted effort and wasted breath - just do what I did, apply a filter so he can join the rest of the newsgroup's 'no-hopers'.

I consider myself fairly tolerant of other people's mental issues, but there has to be a limit to what is acceptable.

I was really just playing him along. It's funny.

Noted.

T i m formulated on Sunday :

As did I, until he became offensive.

Best state for Li batts is part charged, not full...

I thought that difficulty was what you were attempting to deal with, though two plug in timers working together does sound a rather, if not actually "very", large compromise ;-)

Depending how intelligent the multiple? chargers are, & how long between bouts of "normal usage", "topping up" will likely see the batts off just as quick as not bothering...

Depends how much a new battery(s) is?

Mmm

Others including me will also have kit that died because it was left on charge...

Possibly. Or just disconnecting it as you clearly werent using the bike...

Obvious question is why does he have several if he didn't use them (or care for them)?

With such limited use maybe he should get a corded version?

I'll watch with interest

Mmmm

So your best solution so far is to charge potentially already charged batteries for a couple of hours a month, to try & make them last longer than either not charging them or charging them, whilst not using them, so when you finally decide you want to use one it might work?

Shurely it's obvious to even a dead clairvoyant?

So what killed the battery?

Bringing them indoors may have helped a little [1], but

Bike -See above. Rest - Disposable/replaceable rechargeable battery versions?

How has the rest of humanity survived this far...

FSV of ;-)

Why don't you run into and do some more "blue sky thinking" dear - you know you like doing that...

And my what a throng of star studded responders you've gathered once again ;-)

& you T i m continue to fixate on setting off to find complicated "techno 'duino" solutions to unusual situations that (after a little backtracking) appear to be the result of compounded earlier bad decisions. Presumably why, amazingly enough, no-one on here had come up with anything remotely similar to your "problem" or your "solution" - because they hadn't ever been or imagined themselves in your (mate's ;-) ) situation..

The realistic solutions to your (mate's ;-) ) woes would involve making smarter decisions earlier on rather than waiting until it's all FUBARd & then try to remedy it with your usual convoluted "stoned" thinking...

You then get defensively upset when pertinent questions are asked about the background assumptions to "your plan"... the answers to which, let's be honest, are usually not difficult & then the junior mud slinging starts...

In short - analyse more before you start on the epic "because I can!" solution designing ;-)

Good luck with it (...all).

(spaced.me.uk - appropriate epitaph for you ;-) )

<Bigger snip>

If "there" is where you & the likes of Harry ("very") Bumptious are at, I'd rather not if it's all the same to you ;-)

Closed minds open coffins...

Above all keep smiling :-) or the involuntary gritting of teeth or whatever Alt equivalent OOTB "defining thing" you choose to do instead ;-)

Your memory is still atrocious...
