Optima red top. Wouldn't start car after being on Battery Tender. Jump starts and runs fine. Bought a new charger/maintainer for AGM batteries that supposedly desulfates. After a couple of days with this charger it would start the car, but still seemed weak. Battery fully charged last night. Voltage was down to 11.96 by this morning NOT hooked up to anything overnight. Is the battery toast, or is it probably a sulfation issue given the fact that I saw some improvement after using the new charger? If it's the latter, what are the chances of reviving it with a prolonged desulfation?
Thanks, Aaron |
