I have two large lead acid batteries that crank a standby Generator...They are in series for 24 volts and crank the gen nicely....I charge both with the same battery tender(12v) one at a time.......1.5 amps on each battery..One charges quickly with no problems ....the other spits water high enought to leave the cell hole...
\Both are charged every month one takes 1 hour to charge and the water spitter takes 2 hours...
Also after cleaning both batteries with clean water....A week later a wet film seeps out around the cell holes on the spitter...I try to keep it clean to avoid a path for discharge between cells and posts...Ive tried floating the battery with the battery tender and the seepage is worst...There are no marking on the batterys and I have tended them for 3 years....Lots of tending....Starts the units every 6 months..These are 1 foot by 2 foot each..Comments please
