Cold weather starting

We had major problems starting the plane (Grob 2500 engine) after a cold soak in winter-often below -10C  So we added a car battery charger direct to the battery via a fuse, with the quick disconnect  under the Oil cover. Works a treat-- Doesnt help that some of our pilots do a lot of soaring, even in winter, so battery does not get recharges enough, even when taxying
