BU-805: Additives to Boost Flooded Lead Acid

From the amount of reading I''ve done people still argue what the best way to charge a lead acid battery. Flooded or sealed. Or agm. Go off the manufacturer''s guidelines. Do a constant charge to what it says. And then float it to what it says. May not be fancy but it will keep the battery working a long time. Just keep heat away from it and keep flooded flooded. …
