Good luck; I'm pretty sure I know who's going to process that question, and he's the one that tells the LRIs & his inspectors when he's the LRI to tell teams to remove chargers >6A.
because the rules state nothing about chargers, the only rule that mentions anything about charging is the one that states they shouldn't be charged at a higher rating than manufacturer recommends, which is 6A. Using a 6A charger to do bulk charge, then the 15A charger for top off will be within the rules because the charge rate will never be higher than 6A. these new chargers will only top them off which will only draw a few amps at max, so we will be explicitly within what the rule states.
