Re: Charging Batteries

The only allowed battery chargers are the six amp smart charger or equivalent 6 amp charger. In the past FIRST shipped a 4 amp smart charger that does OK but takes longer to charge.

5.2.6 Electrical System Requirements

<R19> The 12v Battery may only be charged by a 6 Ampere rated battery charger between matches. When recharging Kit batteries, you may use the charger provided by FIRST or one with equivalent charging current.
