Fast charger more likely to electrolyze the water in the cells. Thus
killing Them.

Smart chargers better. Slow chargers better.


Fast charger knows when to shut off,slow chargers don't.
Fast charger detects when time to shut off based on state of charge,slow
charger has no idea of state of charge of cell,nor does the operator when
setting any added timer.
Smart chargers best,but they all charge FAST at first,then slow as needed
depending on programming and type of charge measurement.
