i work with non-sealed lead acid batteries, but ive never really ran any SLA's untill now
what should the voltage be on a good/decent 6v sla when fully charged?
im used to 24 and 36v non-sealed sla's so i dont really know
-
the physics should be the same (all based upon 2 volt lead-acid cells wired in series) -- thus the fully-charged voltage of a 6v sla should be VERY close to 1/4 the fully-charged 24v battery
-
my 24v batts run ~ 25.5-25.9 fully charged and about the same with my 36v batts- 37.5-37.9
so we are talking ~ 6.37-6.4V
this sla must have some issues. ive had it on the charger for 4 hours this morning and about 4-5 hours last night and it is still ~ 5.7V
-
one of the cells must be fubar

If I remember correctly a 6V at full charge is 7.45. I can check later today and let you know.

yep, and it is just charging the shit outta the rest of them to get the voltage up, becuase the charger doesnt know any better :-X
happens all the time at work, but they are non-sealed and put out quite a bit of hydrogen when you try to cool em like that
thankfully this was my last week as the battery bitch, now im forklift maint. tech!

it doesnt really matter. im gonna wire up a 12v power cable right anow and be done with it. i have been up since noon yesterday when i woke up and the v3 was here. then worked all night and ahve to leave in 6hrs for a show ;)
12v v3 here i come for the night!~

Consult the manual:

my 6v are usually at about 6.4 volts after they rest about a day or so, when charging, they are at about 7.5 volts tho FWIW
-
that sounds about right bean. no more SLA for me. im pretty positive this one is fried
i gues im gonna have to take on the walmart lion pack tomorrow ;)
i was gonna do it anyways, but i had hoped to sell this oade sla/charger to help ease the pain
anyone need an oade charger that has float, for 6v and has a 4pin on it?

is it an eco/powersonic charger ???
i want a batteryminder charger for my 6v's, i can NEVER see the eco charger i have switch green cause im SOO freakin colorblind :P and the batteryminder just flashes when done :)
-
it is just the oade charger that has a constant light for fast charge and a flasher for done/trickle/float

hmm, i may be interested, but id have to sell my old one first :)
what amp rating does it charge at, 1 amp ?
-
it says .6amp
-
suite, id prefer to have one at 1amp but we'll see
-
well, 8-9 hours on the charger has gotten it up to 6.15V
im gonna let her runa nd see if she wont come back to life, carl said he just used it 2 weeks ago?!?!?!?

hmm, thats weird, let it keep going, at least its in the 'operating voltage' right now, another 6 hrs or so should get her to full trickle, but just leave her on there awile, it cant hurt :)

thats what carlbeck said, it was his and he used it 2 weeks ago. he said it still held an excellent charge then....
he said to just let hr run overnight and see what happens
i would ahve last night but i had to work, and im kinda sketchy leavin stuff plugged in charging that i havent had for very long

d00d, i let my slas sit on the charger for like 2+ years, no worries w/ the trickle :)
