Forscan and charger question

I looked around and couldn't find a good answer to this:

I have a 2025 ST job 2, and want to setup to use Forscan for a few things documented in this forum. This Post , talks about using a Battery tender/maintainer while using Forscan. While this other post states to use a good battery charger that puts out 15 amps.

I currently have a CTEK (40-206) MXS 5.0-12 Volt Battery Charger and Maintainer (link). Will this be sufficient while using Forscan? Or should I purchase a regular charger with 15 amps?

thanks!

I didn’t use a battery tender at all, and it went just fine.
