hi, after some schematics to charge 6 volt and 12 volt sla ( sealed lead
acid ) batteries.... basically dont need to charge them flat out , cause
they dont get used much, something i can leave on trickle charge for a week
or so , would be good....

any body have any or know of any links ?




Trickle charge is very bad for a lead battery.

If you can get a computer equipped charger(~40-60 euro),
those do a much better job, they switch on automatically
at the right discharge level, and also stop in time.
That way the batteries live longest.
