Back in the day the only people that had battery chargers were mechanics and dealerships.
Most people took lead acid batteries to the “filling station” and left them overnight for a slow charge which was supposed to make it like new. Charges were about $2 or sometimes free.
I just read an article that says slow charging causes “sulphation” in the battery and charges should be set on high or around 15amps.
Most Battery Tenders are around 1.5amps or less and most people say they have good luck and batteries last longer keeping them charged using a battery tender.
Anyone have any experience using battery tenders 6v or 12v?
Thanks,
