Well I have one half charged battery survive in my test. The other one had bulging sides and was devoid of water. I watered it, but soon after charging started the temp climbed to make the sides very warm (125*F)to the touch. The remaining battery shows some promise. After charging to between 1150 to 1190 on all cells the voltage climbed to 15.57 volts, but the electrolyte remained cool. I shut down the charger, installed the conditioner and set it aside to do its stuff. I'll wait to see what happens.
Arlid, any idea of how long should it take before some measurable results can be observed?
