k3n12ock Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 How would I go about recharging a batcap without having to buy their brand charger? My bro has a motor cycle and regular car battery slow charger and I was wondering if It'd work on the batcap. Anyone have any idea if it would be okay to use either on the batcap?

BulletInjection Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 I think lead acid batteries are better to charge with a lower amperage. I conclude that due to the fact the big 3 can damage these batteries due to the amount of current going from the alternator to them. Slow charge it and it should be just fine. Or ill sell you my yellow top for $150 Quote My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
