Re: Any Good Battery Chargers?

The initial price is a bit surprising, but you get 10 banks for just a little more than 6 with one Andymark sells. The charge is limited to 2 amps per bank, so it isn't fast by any means. But we are still running batteries that are several years old because they are properly maintained using this charger.



Our charger also has this, plus at 80% the green indicator blinks to let you know that it is nearly done.
That looks nice but reminded me a few years back during a tournament they made an announcement that Gator clamps to charge batteries was not okay but since then I have seen it on and off. Is there anyone who has found a final verdict on it?
