Re: 6 volt battery charging

Chris, I've been getting on average 7-8 years from the NAPA Group 4 Commercial 6- volt batteries in my '34 Eight. The battery winters in the car, installed but disconnected, in an unheated garage. Typical New Jersey winters, often below freezing but rarely below 0 F. My practice for many years has been to use a trickle charger about once every 6-8 weeks for about 5 - 8 hours. Typically it will start at about 4 amps and taper down to 1-2 within a few hours.
