Battery equalization in southern California
I'm looking for a place or a person in southern California that can equalize my 2 Trojan t105s. I called a couple local battery shops and they didn't know what I was talking about. I know a few of you...

Ive left my batteries the PD charger all week. I will pull them from the Rv this weekend and take measurement on the cells and post my reading. I will attempt to equalize them on Saturday. I will keep everyone posted.
I take it you bought a good hydrometer to measure the specific gravity.
Ninerbikes,
Yes It looks like a glass turkey baster with a thermometer inside.
So I took my specific gravity reading with my hydrometer.
Battery #1
1250
1200
1225
Battery #2
1225
1250
1200
Doesn't look good does it...?
Go put them on your equalizer charger, the manual model... and get back to us late tonight or tomorrow morning... you know now what you are looking for.
You are looking for about 1.270 to 1.275 or 1.280 across all six of them. 1.290 or 1.300 would be outstanding, but not to be expected with the age of these batteries.
Be as precise as you can be with your readings tomorrow morning... down to the .10 instead of the .25, if you can.
