>Hello "ismith1984", the lead-acid battery are charged normaly with 1/10 of the battery capacity. You may charge the battery to 13.8V in standby mode.
>If you are interested, I could publish a charger schematic, I have been using successsully for 15 years. It includes IC LM723 , 2N3055, transformer and some more components. The schematic provides 13.8V with current limit 10A. Charging the battery to higher voltage will cause water evapuration in standby mode.
