Nothing wrong i using a time switch to prevent overcharging.
Sone time a go I got some of these to keep the batteries of my classic cars alive when not in use and I have had batteries keep going for 8 to 10 years. I currently have my sealed boat batteries on charge for about 4 years and still OK. They are not like full 3 stage chargers but just switch off when the battery voltage get to 14 V and back on when the voltage drops to about 13.5 V. It also reduces the water usage so reduces the need to keep topping the batteries up.
But we digress.
