Is the 11900-4 charger compatible with 12v AGM batteries?

Its a decent trickle charger for its cost. AGMs will do fine save one drawback, this charger float charges at 14.2V, which is a bit high for AGMs, as they prefer to be floated around 13.8V. Its not a hazard because AGMs will tolerate up to 14.4V, but at the cost of battery life

Probably not. If your batteries aren't marked as AGM batteries, this isn't the charger for you. AGM batteries charge at a higher voltage then conventional lead acid batteries. BatterMinder does make a charger for regular lead acid batteries. You can check their web site for the correct model, then check Amazon for a good price.

Refer to your current charger. This unit will work if the your current units provides 19.5V and equal to or less than 4.62A.

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.

Jessica, This is an AGM (Absorbed Glass Matt) battery and will need a charger that has a setting for AGM batteries. There are several charger manufactures out on the market just make sure it has or can charge AGM bateries. Let me know if you have any furter questions.Thanks, Jeff B.

Section 2.8 of the manual says "Use the charger for charging only 6 and 12V LEAD-ACID, GEL and AGM-type rechargeable batteries with recommended rated capacities of 12Ah (6V) and 5-33Ah (12V). " My first attempt at this was a ProSeries PSC-15A-OB which, while a nice little charger, was NOT specified for use with AGM/gel. So I am now replacing with the SE-1-12S-CA. Oh, yeah, and a replacement battery too :-( You should call Schumacher if you have doubts; 800-621-5485 M-F 7-5 CDT.

You should read the Battery specs. AGM batteries if charged at 12 volt DC only. NOT 12.5 to 14.5 or more, like most chargers. AGM's will take an Unlimited amp charge at 12 volts . Its the charging voltage thats critical with AGM's Check the spec's at Optima's website or any info about AGM's. I have the 1500 model and it charges at 12 volts only. Works fine on any battery AGM ATV's and big Sears Platium Odessy AGM's and brings back to life old trailer lead acid's.

It probably does, but keep in mind that different batteries require different floating voltage ("maintenance mode" in other words). This charger has no voltage adjustments. For an expensive AGM battery you will want a better charger, the one that would allow voltage regulation, and also has a temperature compensation.

I don't know about the numbers and what part they are but, I have been able to use my 4.0 XC 12volt battery with every 12 volt tool I own (about 9 of them) and charge it on every 12volt milwaukee charger I have come across. This battery is awesome and it the one I use every day.

this battery is same size as 12ah x 12v AGM, I've been using ub12150 for 2 years and really like the extra power with same size case

It will work. AGM batteries can be used in any orientation, that is one of their main advantages.

Any 12 volt battery charger will work. Just search for 12 volt charger and maintainer and expect to pay $10 to 20. I use Battery Tender Junior 021-0123

I've read where the agm batt can be charged by this charger when connected in parallel with another conventional battery. I also know that there are agm battery chargers available. I suggest that you look up the charging of the agm on youtube. Someone has probably already solved this type of problem. Cheers.

The sticker on the bottom of the charger says it is compatible with EB 12 Battery.

Mr. BuddyOlPal I did a little research on your question, first the term "dry cell" is a little misleading for this battery, it is actually a AGM design Battery, which means it is a glass mat and not a true "dry cell"...that term, belongs to batteries like AA AAA C D Batteries. According to the battery manufacturer... Any conventional battery charger or alternator up to 15.2 volts and 25 amps will be sufficient....However I would not use a charger that high for that type of battery, I would use a lower amperage, say something from 2 -6 amps would be better.....The smart charger does not supply that kind of current, it is only for a charged battery and to maintain it while it is not being used....I installed a AGM battery as a second battery in my 4 wheeler and this battery maintainer worked really well for that purpose, so if your battery is ok and charged, then it should work just fine...

I am not using it on AGM batteries, but they are just lead acid batteries in a more efficient configuration, so I wouldn't be afraid to use this battery charger on AGM batteries.

Yes I have the 9700A charger and it works fine. This battery works great for me and is used in a Makita 3/8 drive impact gun. I am very satisfied. Are you shure the charger works right. Pushed the yellow button?
