Electrical contacts need to be clean and dry...........that means keeing them dry, and that is about protection, not cleaning. So pay attention to how well battery and charger port are protected from water and trail debris and modify as required. On my Levo I made a neoprene cover for the motor to battery connection ( which is also the charger port). On my Whyte the battery and connections to the motor and CAN are really well protected so no need for any additional measures by me. The charger port has a rubber cover cap and is located inboard of most trail water/mud so better than most "flappy" charger port covers. Even so I made a small neoprene cover for it as a secondary barrier.Thanks Mike, I was under the impression this had to be done after every spin in winter to make sure everything is dry. You reckon that is overkill?
