VRLA Battery query

« on: July 12, 2015, 09:06:50 »

The Tracer handbook warns A Valve Regulated Lead Acid battery is fitted and warns against using an incorrect charger.

So what would be a correct charger.
I have an optimate 2, 3 and 3+
or what do I now need?

A constant low current charge,which is what you have. Not the old bake it till it boils. You renegade turncoat you. how's the Tracer going? is it that good.

If I understand your post the Optimate should be OK for the VRLA battery.

My quickie review of the Tracer is in the post "todays the day".

yes, a modern day charger like the optimizer is the one.
