Glad to hear of another happy 17Z owner.

If you keep it plugged in for extended periods, be sure to check the water level of your battery. Fill it to the bottom each cell's cap tube. Only used distilled water when adding water to the battery.

You can also remove the battery and store it inside while you are not using it.
