I am running a 100 watt rms amp drawing about 10 amps for 9 hours straight and the battery was still going strong. Hope this helps.

Dude just charge it until the meter reads full it will not hurt your batteries. Joe

Lower amperage will charge your batteries slower. Its the amount of current being put back into your battery.

It might, depending upon battery size and how discharged it is - if it is totally discharged, nothing may bring it back, but if it is just really low, you might try to pre-charge it with a regular charger and then maintan it ( which is what the Tender is for) wihe the Battery Tender. Remember, it is only 1.25 amp and I would think you might need at least 2 amps for charging very weak batteries

I havent had any issues with the charger draining the batteries Ive left it unpluged for 6 weeks and didn't lose a volt on my guage. You might want to check to see if anything else might be draining you batteries its uncommon for a charger to do that.

I'm really not sure. From what I understand from previous information on charges, is they will continue to trickle / slow charge after the rapid charge cycle is complete. After the battery is completely full to capacity, it will no longer take a charge. This may vary from types of battery cells. The best I can do is to direct you to your cell phone service manual or contact your cell phone tech support. Sorry I could not give you a definitive answer.

It all depends on the charger you have. The voltage will be the same as a car battery but the amp hour rating will be much lower. Think of the amp rating as the amount of energy the battery will hold. Just check you charger for the amp ratings its capable of charging. If it will charge at something close to 2 amps, you should be okay. Hope this helps.

Just make sure you have its unplugged when putting a heavy load on the batteries over 90amp

Yes, But that depends on how much you are drawing them down. If it is to just keep them charged up (trickle charge) definitely yes. For an example if you are drawing 5 amps per hr. for 10 hrs your batteries would need to be rated together at 50 amp/hr. Your charger and panel would be able to keep up to this But the sun doesn't shine every day so you could start to run out charge. and the batteries will drain down. The six months in summer it would be able to maintain the batteries. You just have to be able to put back into the batteries what you have taken out of them.

The ammeter needle goes down as the battery gets charged. So when the meter needle shows between 1 and 0, you can assume it fully charged. I usually stop charging when the needle is close to 1.

Cody, depends upon the charger you plug this item into. I can only speak for the Tenergy charger I've got, but yes it makes an audible alert when charging is complete and stops feeding the batteries. BTW, I've learned the importance of charging the LiPo batteries at a low amperage to get a full, deep cycle charge.

No, you should remove batteries when they are fully charged. The unit has built-in protection to prevent overcharging but why put it to the test continually? The risk of fire far exceeds the benefit of having a fully charged battery.

I think that the charging stops when has reached a full charge. I have charged batteries overnight and don't see any harm knowing that the batteries reached full charge sometime during the night.

No, you charge it, install it between the battery and your amp. It's always on or it would discharge and pop your amp fuse when it turned on.

I fully charge first then recharge when they drop below 3.7 volts I read that letting them get to cut off point 3.2v is not really good for them.

If the battery already has a full charge the tester will show it in a short while. Yes, it will sharge partially discharged batteries.
