I've used an Optimate 3SP for the last 5 years or so and it has worked perfectly. Keept my motorbike and now my motorhome (how times change!) fully charged throught the winter.
Having said that, CTEK stuff seems to win most reviews these days.Dec 04 TDV6 HSE in Tonga green with Alpaca interior.

CETEK seem to have released a new range. I have a XS7000 but it is no longer listed on their website but they still seem to be available from AMAZON etc.
The current MXS7.0 seems to have a very similar specification and looks like the closest replacement.

If youi are just charging normally, then connected is fine. If you are reconditioning, then off the car is best (or at least fully disconnected. Bodsys Brake Bible
