Yep, VAP offer this option with their tunes.
I don't have it in my VAP tune as I got my tune before they offered this option.
I could get a new tune from VAP with it but I don't see the point as my disconnect the earth lead method has worked perfectly from day one.

Default Ctek Multi US 7002

Ref: 2021 Jaguar F-Type R
Quick question...regarding the Ctek Multi US 7002 charger, does this come with the lighter adapter & is this the easiest approach?

Thanks, Tony

The lighter circuit shuts down at some point when the ignition is turned off, so that will not work to keep a charge on your battery.

It is just a battery!! Jaguar does not want you to damage any of the electronics . Avoid this by disconnecting.

If by this posting you suggest that the battery be disconnected instead of using a battery minder to keep the battery charged, you might want to read the threads related to the CTEK units and others. Disconnecting the battery is NOT the answer.
But perhaps I have misunderstood your posting. This is an old thread,in any case.
