Default Great News, will be interesting if they will be ok
You are more than welcome, glad the charger worked out. If you ever want to put 8 batteries in that 02, I know a guy ....

Here is a chart which is the key numbers for voltages, which you may already have, but just in case:
http://www.trojanbattery.com/Battery...e/Testing.aspx
At the bottom of that web page is the chart. A strong fully charged 8 volt battery should get to 8.49 volts. My three year old batteries get to:

Code:
8.47    8.45    8.42    8.40    8.49    8.46
The other take away from that chart is it is not good to discharge a battery to less than 8.07 or 50%.

Fun stuff isn't it
