•Charging Times are based on a 50% discharged battery - approx 12-12.2 volts.

•NR = Not Recommended.

•Charging times will vary with battery type and condition.

10.3Battery State – If a battery has only been slightly discharged, it can be charged in less than a few hours. The same battery could take up to 10 hours if very weak. The battery state can be estimated by using the built-in tester. The lower the reading the longer charging will take.

10.4.Battery rating – A higher rated battery will take longer to charge than a lower rated battery under the same conditions. A battery is rated in ampere-hours (AH), reserve capacity (RC) and cold cranking amps (CCA). The lower the rating the quicker the battery will be charged.
