Couldn't you just make a sets of Battery Clamps about 16" long and daisy
chain as many as you wanted ( knowing that the 2 amp charge of a Battery
Tender would be divided by that number ) in a series?
1 battery gets 2 amps, 2 batteries get 1 amp, 3 batteries each get .66
amps, 4 batteries each get .5 amps?

     Larry,
     In that case a 1.5 A charger is on the high side when charging a
     single battery. It won't hurt at all to have as many as you can in
     parallel. If you're charging them one by one you should be able to
     swap them approximately every hour, not every day.
