Can I use a Marine / RV Charger on a regular car battery?
I just bought a used Everstart WM-51A-PE10 Amp charger. It says is a Boating/RV charger. fully automatic/Manual charger.output is 10Amps at 12Volts.
How is a Deep cycle charger different from a standard charger?
Can I use it to charge a regular car battery? Any recommendations on what to do?
I can not find a manual for the above charger closest I found is this one SF-51A-PE. anyone know the difference between the two chargers? Any one have a WM-51A-PE10 manual they would be willing to scan or compare to the SF-51A-PE models manual?
Is the WM-51A-PE10 Charger a good charger?
I looked around and did find people that said you could charge a deep cycle battery on a regular charger since the one charges to 12.?V but a deep cycle will charge to 14.?V . So will a deep cycle charger damage or over charge a regular battery? Or is it really the same charger just renamed? would the battery need to be manually removed prior to it indicating a full charge as not to damage battery?
is it going to overcharge to the 14. something volts or is that information I found incorrect?
Yes, you can use it. The charger is nothing more than a trickle charger that charges your battery a little bit at a time. A deep cycle battery just takes a little longer to complete the charge.
