    What's the best safest way to charge 6tl batteries

    Please read my response in the thread that says " Guess these batteries only last 4 years." I cover a lot of the factual info there... The techs at Hawker say 13.6 is optimum charging for this size batt... I would do what they say, I have a bunch of different types of chargers, desuphators/...

    What's the best safest way to charge 6tl batteries

    You do not need to disconnect anything to charge each batt with a charger . meaning you can fully charge each battery while in the truck just using one charger , after it says full move to the next one, you can out a 12 volt charger on each battery in the truck and not disconnect anything. It is...

    24v/12v food for thought. Might it work?

    Its not detrimental to hook up off one batt, unless u are trying to pull long periods with no truck running, The situation is no batts charge equally in a 24 volt system as they are designed anyway, the primary battery is always fully charged while the others , Let use the filling the pool as...

    My opinion

    I think this is a fairly well run site, and well moderated . I would be much harder on all the topics they let members run with that do not pertain to Military vehicles and there equipment . It is important to keep this site on track.
