Expert Reply:

We have the part # RM-156-25 which allows you to charge the vehicle being flat towed battery while traveling. This is the most common way to keep the battery of the vehicle topped off while on the road.

If instead you wanted something to charge the battery with when the vehicle is parked we have the CTEK charger part # CTEK56353 which would work well.
