Converter Charging Rate 15.5
I just replaced 1 of the batteries in my as 2 weeks ago. The po had 2 mismatched batteries in it. I checked them both when I got home and found 1 had a charge of 6.6 volts after being plugged in for a week and the other, good one was at 13, but there seemed to be a lot of wetness around it, attributed it to the po having overfilled it. Put the new battery in it and left it alone.
Today I was doing some painting on the tongue and happened to brush the battery door and it was warm. I opened it up and the battery was hot, the old battery that I didn't replace. The new battery was cold, so I took them both out. Testing with a multimeter, the old battery showed 10.6 volts and the new showed 14.8. I tested the cables and they were both showing output from the charger at 15.5, too high me thinks.
So is the converter shot, I don't know.
