Hi there
Just acquired a dozen sealed lead acid batt., differnt manufacturers, however al stats are the same 12V 7Ah

charge instructions are
stand-by 13.5v-13.8v / Initial current no limit
cycle use 14.4v-14.7v / initial current 2.1A max.

can I use a charger thats rated @ 19v- 2.2amps
I'm willing to rectify the charger output, preferably without actually canceling its original use. I have a ongoing supply of these batt. and need to keep them topped up.
the charger is regulated & theres a 15 min quick charge built into the system and then it does the slow charge cycle, that eventually charges the 18v nicad in one hr.( the charger is a ryobi 18volt charger). That being said would it be possible to have them charge @ the same time.

I hope this makes a little bit of sense. Any help would be appreciated.
Hugh
