Astron power supply as a charger?
« on: January 02, 2006, 12:31:53 PM »
I just acquired a free batch, slightly used, 12 pcs. x T-105's but only have a dinky 10 amp battery charger.  Can a use an Astron variable 50 amp power supply, just the same as a charger? Is there a formula as to how much amperage and voltage to equalize x amount of batteries?

Simple answer is yes as long as you can adjust the output to 13.8 V.
