trickle charger
Slow battery feeder
A trickle charger is a battery charger that delivers a slow, steady current over an extended period, typically to maintain a battery's charge rather than restore it quickly.
Used for vehicles in storage or seasonal equipment: I keep a trickle charger on the motorcycle over winter.
The low amperage prevents overcharging and extends battery life.
