Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 The battery charger that I use is the one with both motor bike and car mode on the face of it. Should I use the car mode for charging my battery or should I continue to keep it on the motor bike mode?? I use a 12v 17amp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Down through the years I have always charged it on the bike mode, but know a lad who would charge his on the car mode, and its seems to have no effet on the battery.

Wild_and_Irish 11 Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 mine has a tortoise and a hare, its a 6 amp one, i put it on the slow charge for about 9 hours and then on the quick one for about an hour, it said on my instructions you can't actually get a full charge on the lower setting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
