This is my chassis battery, an agm I got used and have little experience with.Trickle charger failed in storage, it is dead as a doornail. Not covenient to babysit it for long hours on meanwell or bring it home. Would it be bad to do the following?Charge overnight on 14.4v, 10amp smart charger. Then condition with meanwell another day.???

Seems a new starting battery would be a better choice. I wouldn’t want to get stuck somewhere.

Can you provide more details as to exactly which charger model you intend to use? Thank you

Hi Mex! Thx for your help! Noco gen3 charger, 14.4v.

PSTwiddle the voltage setting on the Meanwell to 14.4 volts and you can leave it humming away for 2 weeks -- no sweat. Winter temperatures compensated for advice.

When I was using the meanwell on the first of the fiamms, I set it at 14.7 but it went up to 15.2 before I realised.

Is that not a concern at 14.4? Is the meanwell preferred over the smart charger for overnight at 14.4?

Twiddle the voltage setting on the Meanwell to 14.4 volts and you can leave it humming away for 2 weeks -- no sweat. Winter temperatures compensated for advice.
