(maximum).
Measure the battery open-circuit
voltage after leaving the battery
unused for more than 30 minutes.
12.8 V or more --- Charging is complete.
12.7 V or less --- Recharging is required.
Under 12.0 V --- Replace the battery.
Measure the open-circuit
voltage prior to charging.
Connect a charged and
AMP meter to the battery
