    Q: battery charging settings

    I have a 12vt Lead Acid battery that runs my cooling fan and nightlight compass. I need to charge it up. Any tekkies know what settings I need to do the job?

    Right now I am using the following: and it is not very good
    Trickle: 0.1amp
    Slope: Linear
    Delta Peak: 30mV
    Current: 1.2amp

    How big is the battery? The Ah rating will help to decide what type of charger to get.

    I would suggest the Schumacher Model WM-1562A. It can charge 6 or 12 volt batteries. It is made for small batteries and won't over charge them.
