[Herokight]

In for results on this, and the revamp of the Caddy. As soon as that kick ass Chevelle install is finished.

are the batts dead dead or will a recharge get them back to life.. i have my wet cell that sat for 6 months threw it on the charger and rest at 13.1 after 2 days and down to 12.8 in a week and it stay there for a few more days. lowest i seen it rest is 12.7 after 2 weeks

Resting voltage is .5 volts? They are paperweights now. I think anything below like 10 volts are UNrecoverable. Can't remember the exact number where they are goners

mine was dead too. sitting for 6 months below 10 volts. i guess wet cell work different than AGM. my Odyssey was sitting at 10.5 for 2 months and never recovered even though it was new. wet cell from auto zone. below 10 volts 2 times in 2 years and still starting my 454 easily

edit: not saying wet cell is better. AGM is by far better in taking the abuse

did you not see the decimal point? .5 volts. 1/2 of 1 volt. And for over a year. LOL. No battery will ever recover from that.

trust me, i wish they would recover. Do you guys understand how much work it will be to replace those? 4 of them are behind T15k #1 and under T15k #2 ......and attached to buss bars. See the link in the first post i just made and you will understand how i am not looking forward to this, other then the outcome.

Yea that's gonna be a job all in itself.
