[QUOTE="Flyspray, post: 231344, member: 4981"] Don't know if this helps, but until I figure out what I want to do, I've been charging 4 x 5000 mAh batteries from my car battery, which is: 620 CCA, 120 RC, using the lighter socket. The car battery has 12.3V before starting and 12.15V when finished. Takes about 10 hours to charge the 4 batteries to 100% from flat. Did this at home first, in case the car wouldn't start, but it starts no problems. And as a precaution when out in the bush I start the car every now and again while charging. Mabe if Condor22 reads this he can tell me if I'm doing any damage to the battery? [/QUOTE]
