there is one for gel cell battery's and one for regular battery's. I now have one of each. I used the regular one on my gel battery the last few years and worker fine. We have two cars now so I got the gel one now. They both work fine. No problems.

Yes it will as it uses lower voltage during charge and storage charge at a higher voltage as generated by GEL batteries!

Hello. It does not appear so. That massage unit does not use the same plastic safety shielded plug as your standard lead wire does. You may be tied in to the manufacturer for the supply items which will be far more expensive than your standard lead would be. Hope this helps.

I think it depend on how "smart" the charger is. As I understand it, lead-acid batteries require a three step charging process, first the actual charging, second, a top charge, and then a float or trickle charge to maintain the charge over time. Maybe the rechargeable lanterns have this sort of smart charging. I hope so, and so far have found no definitive answer. My own testing confirms the lantern charger handles the first two steps well, so probably it does the maintenance charge as well. Too bad, isn't it, that rechargeables lose power over time, whether used or not.

Waiting to hear back from Yuasa. I have 2 of these chargers. I recently changed one application from a lead-acid to an Absorbtion Glass Mat (AGM) battery type, which is the same generic type as your Optima. So it just occurred to me that I should get the official answer on this as well. For what its worth, I had a conversation this morning with a tech at Batteries Plus and was told this type of charger will work on AGM as well as Lead-Acid. From personal experience, because this is a trickle charger, it may take a number of days to fully charge a discharged large capacity battery such as yours. Waiting to hear back from Yuasa.

It will barely charge anything. You have to have a lot of time and patience to get any meaningful benefit from it. Wait for a more efficient model to be invented.

No, you have to purchase a splice kit that's designed for these since they are silicone coated. Only one end supplies your positive and negative lead wires.

From my understanding, it shouldn't be overcharged, so best to check it periodically tools sure charge doesn't drop. If it drops, best to charge it then.

I would check the website. When I was ordering it I remember reading a lot of material about these items. I think I would have noticed if it were lead and would not order it.

That will depend on your charger, and not on your battery. However, you should usually charge batteries of the same kind -- not mixed.

Yes. I think the combination of charging and discharging is offsetting depending on the draw of the item you are charging...example...might take longer to charge both items this way, but they are both charging.

Yes, "For all sizes, types and brands of 12 volt lead-acid batteries". Including but not limited to: Flooded (filler cap / maintenance-free/ VRLA / SLA), gel, AGM (Optima/Odyssey/ etc.) Starter, deep cycle and hybrid.

Just make sure you check the lead ends but I'm thinking from what I have seen it should with no problem...at worst case scenario return it!!

Yes this kit works, there is actually two wires per lead. I used it to connect four lights with no trouble simply by adding extra wires.

I imagine they are all "lead free." I suspect the higher priced one is cleverly advertising it as "lead free" to make you think you are getting something special.

Yes it can charge different types. You do have to pick what type. I have charged several types from lawn mower to car/truck to camper batteries without any problems.
