Location: Michigan | Probably a dumb question, but I just bought new batteries and I want them to perform as best as possible for the year. I have a 2/10/50 amp portable charger which has options for 'Conventional Low Maintenance' and 'Maintenance Free Deep Cycle'; my question is what is the best way to charge my starting battery? It is a size 24 Marine starting battery and has 625 cranking amps. I usually like to charge it overnight so do I charge it at 2 amps and use the Conventional Low Maintenance option?
Thanks in advance! |

| lower the amp, deeper the charge. It may take longer, but it's the "right" way to do it. |

| exactly go 2amp when possible you might not always have time for that but the 10amp is fairly quick would stay clear of 50 |
