Ok to leave onboard charger plugged in for extended periods?

A trickle charger is exactly as named and always provides a small amount of current to maintain voltage levels ....the new smart chargers are susposed to be able to monitor voltage and not overcharge ....not sure how well they work ....but I do know that since I added an onboard charger all my battery problems ended .....m
I took my Deka's out this winter and kept them in the basement. Maybe once every 4-6 weeks I would check the voltage with a multi-meter. Was suprised to see at the most a drop of .2 or so volts. Connect a 10 amp charger for 90 minutes and they are back to full charge and good to go!
