Hi There Darryl,
Your recommendation to customers is 100%
accurate
IIt is better to use low charge currents
Not to long ago, on this list, it seemed the
consensus that fast charge rates were needed to
bubble battery electrolyte to keep it stirred
up. At least one fast, hard charge per week was
needed. It had been said that a C/5 was needed
for Surrette batteries, later amended to
C/10. The discussions seems to have gone full circle on this issue.
