6.
Immediately remove any battery from charger that shows signs of excessive heating, gassing, leaking, or
swelling during charge stage. Battery should be disposed of. Battery should be marked with a permanent
marker with date and statement "CHARGED, TESTED BAD"; then processed for disposal.
7.
Battery is finished when charge current (amp meter on charger) drops to < 1 amp and holds there for three
hours. Automatic chargers will stop charging and give a screen reading of "Charge Complete". Some automatic
chargers may not fully recharge with one charge cycle; may or may not indicate a good battery. Additional
charge cycles may be required to ensure full recharge of the battery. If the OCV is unchanged in two
consecutive cycles the battery has reached its capacity. Proceed with testing.
