Whats the most basic thing I should know about battery charging?
A battery charger is rated in amps (.75 amps, 2 amps, 10 amps, etc.). While a batterys capacity is rated in ampere-hours (a typical car starting battery will have 50 Ah, while a deep cycle battery has 100 Ah or more). If a battery is charged for 10 hours with a 2 amp charger, then 20 Ah have been added to the batterys electrical storage capacity. Also, remember to connect the RED cable to the positive terminal and the BLACK cable to the negative terminal.
