Charging Car Battery With AC Power
I was on the phone with my dad and mentioned that my normal driving distance doesn't give my battery enough time to charge up. He mentioned a device that connects to the battery and a cord, the cord is then plugged into any regular wall outlet, then it trickle charges the battery. I forgot the name of it, and he's now asleep :|.
Anyone know what they call these?

Battery tender, or a trickle charger. You can get "on board" ones that stay in the jeep, and you just plug them in.
Are you having a problem with the jeep, how far are you driving

Normally I only drive 4 miles to work and 4 miles home, and that's pretty much it.

Unless you have some really excessive crank time a four mile drive should be way more than enough. It may shorten battery life to on a few years but should have zero short term problems.
