Default Connecting battery tender

Hi All
I just got an Accord EX-L. Very impressed with it.
I all my previous cars I've connected a battery tender pigtail to the battery in place (positive to positive post, neg to ground). I sometimes leave the car for long periods and do not want to remove the battery in case my wife needs to use the car -- she can unplug the pigtail but wouldn't want to install the battery.

Anyway, any problems with using the battery tender that way with the accord?

Thanks.

If I understand your post (UK/US translation?), you want to leave a battery charger (unplugged) connected to the battery while the car is used. That should not cause any problems.

good luck

Thanks. I'll leave the pigtail installed, then just plug in the charger when not using the car.
