In fact when we used the term boil it was more of a joke than anything. We would laugh and say bring to a boil and simmer for a few hours. Everyone knew what the guy meant. Sorry if its an issue to anyone. I didn't get the whole post at first, I'm not a battery expert as I was one of the main people in our shop working on the DC to AC 3 phase brush less motor systems used in Hyster trucks. We also ran some old separately excited brushed motors. I know that batteries need a proper charge, equalization, water after charging etc. They put the guys who couldn't fix the trucks in the battery room so I didn't really deal with them much. I also agree with those who think good multiple stage battery chargers should be used to charge deep cycle batteries.
I need to research all of this stuff more so I choose the right components to do what I want. NO, BFL113 I dont want to buy your old stuff. :) I agree with Mex on the quality issue he has posted elsewhere as we did run Crown and they were very good. Hopefully I can learn enough from the people who have been doing this a long time that I put together a decent set up.
