Check voltage of maintenance-free batteries in stock with a digital voltmeter, on a routine basis every eight (8) weeks.
If battery voltage is below 12.4 V (75% charged), recharge battery to full capacity.
After charging battery and before measuring voltage, remove surface charge by applying a 15 amp load for
15 seconds.
To prevent storage related problems, batteries in stock longest should be sold first.
