I'm almost embarassed to admit I don't have a general-purpose charger
though getting one has been on my TODO list for a while now.  I've 
thought about getting one with a desulfator feature like a Battery 
MINDer (could be useful if I ever have to condition any of the UPS 
batteries I have around the house).

What features should one look for in a general-purpose charger?
