my 4 8D-MHD's lasted 7 years, so, no complaints. After I installed the new ones I neglected to close the buses and the batteries went dead. Also not a problem, closed the busses and both battery chargers spun up. I get 13.21 on the port and 13.45 on the starboard. But the meter on the starboard charger is pegged. I'm concerned the charger is bad and possibly overcharging.
How do you go about determining if the charger is doing what its supposed to? The voltage at the batteries looks good. I don't know if my hand meter can measure the actual amps from the charger itself. Is it possible its pegged cause the batteries ran down so low?
Could i have normal voltage at the battery and some crazy high amperage coming off the charger?
