Can this charger be used on an AG M battery?

It can, but over time there will be problems. The AGM battery requires a different charging current and voltage, and temperature sensing. Check out the model, 2012 AGM which is an AGM only or the 12248 which is the Mac daddy and switchable for any type of battery.

I used mine on one -- and it seemed to charge ok. But I am not an expert -- did I goof?

Yes there are chargers for it I got a fully automatic 1.5 amp charger at my local auto parts store for under $30. Just make sure that it can charge AGM batteries

Yes it is. In fact no matter what type of vehicle even if like me you have upgraded to multiple AGM batteries this charger will work for you. It is simple to use (one button operation) and the microprocessor inside the charger ensures you don't overcharge your battery(s) even if its hooked up for months at a time.

The charger is designed for charging NiMH and NiCd batteries only. For anything else, do it at your own risk.

This charger is designed for AGM batteries. Works very well with the agm battery in my Harley, and the diehard in my truck.

I have never tried to do that as I have a seperate charger for all my other batteries. Since this charger came with the batteries thats what I only use them for. You could try but I really dont know if it will have any bad effect on your AA batteries.

I wouldn't use this charger for a battery that size. It would probably take at least 24hrs to charge it. I would look for a charger that's at around a 2-5amp charger. This would be a good alternative for just a little increase in price.... Schumacher XM1-5 1.5 Amp Fully Automatic Power Charger and Maintainer

Kelly, the charger works with 18650 batteries only, so, also you can measure the length and the thickness of yours batteries then if you have some 18650 to compare the size, then you will be ok.

I don't see why not. It's simply a regular battery with an unusual chemistry. Just make sure you get your series wiring correct and make sure they don't overheat at whatever charging amperage you go with.

If its the same it should work but I wouldn't recommend this charger because it doesn't completely charge your battery.

No, but make sure your charger charges this AGM battery with the proper voltage. AGM batteries require voltage of slightly over 14 volts

Yes, you could. But, the life of the battery would be reduced. Agm batteries have special charge requirements. And you would be mixing old and new batteries together. Battery performance can only run as good as the oldest one and would bring the life of the new down to match the older one. All batteries for best results should match type, size, and age. spend an extra $100 and get a good quality charger.

No. For starters a "normal" battery charger (if you are talking about what you'd plug AA's into) is designed for batteries that get to around 1.5 V or so, way less than what this one is rated for. And of course it won't connect without a bunch of custom splicing and screwing around. And they are a totally different kind of battery as well. If you're going to own something that requires this kind of battery, you need to also own the proper way to charge it.

Look at the batteries for model number. Then type that model number into google. If it says it is a "AGM" battery, then yes, this is the right charger. AGM means Absorbant Glass Mat

I don't think so. There are 2 metal plates on both sides of the charger's slot but they look more like holders rather than charging contact. The fact that there is no polarity marker or indication on the charger also makes it harder to believe it would charge your battery.

I would assume yes, if it's capable of handling any NiMH batteries. Personally I use a LaCrosse or PowerEx charger which tailors the charge to each individual cell for longer life and better indications of when the batteries are going bad.

Not to my knowledge, I sent 2 of these units back, first one failed and the second failed as well on 110V. This charger might be OK for small batteries but not worth it for any car or truck battery. I would not recommend it at all.
