Can you ruin a car battery by putting it on charger everyday?

No, you cannot ruin a car battery by putting it on a charger everyday. In fact, it is recommended to keep your car battery on a charger when it is not in use, especially if you live in a cold climate. This will help to maintain the battery's charge and prevent it from freezing.

However, you should be careful not to overcharge the battery. Overcharging can damage the battery and shorten its lifespan. If you are using a charger that does not have an automatic shut-off feature, be sure to disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.

Here are some tips for maintaining your car battery:

* Keep the battery clean and free of corrosion.

* Check the battery's water level regularly and add distilled water as needed.

* Avoid leaving the car lights on for long periods of time.

* If the car will not be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the battery or put it on a charger.

* Follow the manufacturer's instructions for charging the battery.
