mhmm. I should hope that the charger could charge SLA Batteries...
That's why I bought it. So What charge setting should I use for 4 SLA
Batteries? The manual says it can go from .1 amp to 5 amps. It also
says that the max nimber of cells is six... Does that mean that I can
only charge one 12 volt battery? (6 2-volt cells) Can everyone just
write the method they use for charging their batteries? I am kinda
interested in how people do it.
