Ahh....
nothing like a good bit of humour.
By the way, how do you reverse polarity charge a SLA battery without it blowing up?
that was the one thing about this post I never got.
the point I was trying to make is, you need to be really good at what you're doing to do so without harm, so what is the chances of it happening.
Besides, should SLA batts. drain sufficiently, you chuck'em away, no questions asked.
So how would someone purposefully drain it to such a state that it can be reverse charged. I don't understand.
SLA is normally only trickle charged in any case to prolong lifespan.
"Alzheimers Light" ... ?
Is that one of these new alco-pops i keep hearing about ?
As I recall it: We had a combine (grain harvester) with a generator (dynamo to Nigel) that had gone bad. The generator was replaced. As part of the process you need to hook the generator to a battery to polarize it. If you polarize it backward the + and - connections become reversed. The battery was dead when the generator was replace, the backward polarized generator charged it backward. The battery charged but not enough to work well. I think it went dead each night. Could have some of this wrong as it was 40 or so years ago.I wonder who would try to charge a battery the wrong way in the first place..
