Question:

Why does plugging in to 7 way only maintain the battery but not charge it?

The 12 volt circuit on a 7-way simply does not have the necessary amperage output to charge a 12 volt battery, it can only maintain it. That is why you need a separate battery charger for this, and the CTEK MULTI US 3300 12-Volt Universal Battery Charger w/ Pulse Maintenance and Backup Power # CTEK56353 is a great option because it will not only charge your battery but also maintain the charge so you always have optimal power.

I have added a link to a video review of this battery charger for you to check out as well.
