bill88 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 (edited) My lamp charger has packed up,and being a typical Scotsman,i want the cheap option with regards to replacing it It was a 12v charger for charging my lamp battery (12v7ah) thing is i have a 3 stage smart charger here,which is for charging golf trolley batteries,which i believe are (12v 24ah cyclic) The output figure on the label says 12v,4amp, dc.Does anyone know if this will be ok for doing my lamp battery?or will it damage the battery or charger? (charger would cost £55 to replace) Edited October 27, 2007 by bill88 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilky 0 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Is the smart charger the 12V one with the motorbike and car symbols, if so, set it on the motorbike symbol for batteries up to 14ah and the car symbol for anything over that, I have one and it's fantastic, a lot faster than the standard Deben plug type charger, I have one of those as well, but it's just gathering dust, because the smart charger runs rings round it.

No mate,its a powacaddy charger (golf trolley) but it is a three stage charger.First light is 90% charged,second is charged,and third light is trickle,which you can leave the battery on permanently.Takes about 7 hours to fully charge a 24ah golf trolley battery.
