Title: Old Robbe charger
Post by: jaymac on June 26, 2012, 06:53:41 pm

Hi    would this charger be ok  for a 12v  7amp SLA   and which output would be advisable .
The charger  is rated 2-12 Volts and 25 - 500 M/amps
It is the same model as this one on Ebay.

SLA is an abbreviation for Sealed Lead Acid. You can use the 500mA output as long as you don't use any of the other outputs at the same time for other batteries.
