[QUOTE="JNG, post: 464136, member: 11551"] 12 volt lead acid flooded cell deep cycle or dual purpose batteries are best charged via a charger that has an output of 10-15 amps. These batts need an input of 10-15 amps for the best life span and proper charging. This is straight from Johnson Controls recently and Interstate told me basically the same info over 20 years ago. Interstate even suggested running the charger on manual setting for 30-45 minutes after the automatic setting kicked off. It was their opinion that the automatic chargers kicked off too soon in the name of safety first, proper charge was a secondary consideration. [/QUOTE]
