    It’s just one. Your charger has a magnetic clip that attaches abs charges the battery.

    Wait- are you trying to jump start? I’m referring to the trickle charger.

    Just trickle charging it. I came from a 458 and obviously it’s different. Would appreciate it if you can post a photo of the location if you have the time. Thanks

    Look on the rear bumper, around the license plate- to the right of it. Its a circular piece that the charger just attaches magnetically. ill grab a pic when I near the car.

    To add, ensure you always leave the trickle charger connected when you are not using the car. The Lithium ion battery can deteriorate quite rapidly otherwise.

    It’s right above the license plate in the middle for a Pista but for a 488 it’s off to the right of the license plate.
