Now I'm confused, you say the battery tender is not a charger.
He shouldn't have said that. It is not correct.....as the literature with your "tender" clearly states.

It will not attempt to charge a stone-cold dead battery; that is true.

A "normal" charger will blindly try to charge anything it is connected to.

On rare occasions, a normal charger will recover a completely dead battery but that is rather rare. A battery so recovered actually lasting more than a couple of weeks is even more rare.
