Hey Brian, this is a great question but the Roadmaster charge line kit part # RM-156-25 does not have anything built into it to detect when a battery is fully charged and then stop charging. Now with that said this does not have a high enough amperage or voltage charge that you'd need to worry about that from happening. This is basically just a 10 gauge wire that goes from your tow vehicle battery to your towed vehicle battery and because of that it doesn't have ability to really overcharge a battery. It's going to basically just keep your battery topped off while it's being towed and beyond that you don't really have to worry about it.

What vehicle are you flat towing?

@BrianS oh nice! That seems to be a pretty popular vehicle to flat tow right now. Do you have the rest of your flat tow setup all figured out?

Pretty simple install. Used as a precaution. Never towiing it so long that it would even be relevant but nice to have as a backup.
