Suggestions on a float charger?

I want to use a "float" charger to maintain the battery on my little-used '82 245T this winter.

Harbor Freight has one for $9.95 and about $3 s/h, which appears to be a good price.

Does anybody know if their "float" charger does the job right, or is it just a junk trickle charger?

JC Whitney sells a Schumacher float charger for about $40, and the prices go up from there.

Ebay prices suck -- people selling the Harbor Freight unit for $15 and $10 s/h, etc.

Suggestions or comments?
