Did you know a float/trickle charger can KILL your battery?

[QUOTE="richg99, post: 410657, member: 4376"] I learn something every day on here. For many years, I've added a simple house/lamp timer to my battery charging setup. After the initial day, when the lamp timer calls for the battery charger to kick back on, some chargers revert to just two amps. I never thought that would be a problem. The Harbor Freight chargers that I am presently using do not revert back to two amps. They charge at ten amps ( one is smaller at 6 amps). Looks like I should just adjust the time and leave the chargers at the higher amperage. Thanks for posting. Incidentally, since I added the lamp timer...I've had far fewer battery issues. A little dab'll (everyday) do ya! richg99 [/QUOTE]
