Can use 1a charging voltage but need to shorten charging time.. e.g 1 hour only.

Planning to drain, flush, replenish sulfur into battery but first looking for affordable charger.

Overcharging the battery can cause battery plates corrosion.. which decreases the battery performance & health.

Swapping acid wont improve your battery conditions.

I m in the car battery industry for quite some time.. those battery revitaliser is an overrated scam.

If u insist on swapping out the acid, u need to look for sulfuric acid density rating at 1.25sg. Good luck.

Get yourself a bench power supply. Can supply what ever rate that you want.

Just don't leave it alone as it might damage your battery.

I have one, use it to charge many kind of battery.  thumbup.gif

I bet u never use one. It's handy as you can dial up  / down your voltage & current as you want.  thumbsup.gif

1 thing I want to point out -

For vehicles lead acid battery, the recommended charging voltage range is 13V(min) - 14.5V(max).

does it differ by chemistry? like, calcium, silver, antimony, etc?

No idea..
My guess -

silver is used to boost discharge power but, requires high charging voltages.

As for calcium, it's used for reduced electrolytes lost.
