 |
|
Is a special charger needed for AGM batteries such as the Odyssey? At www.odyessy.com they recommend two types, but I’m wondering why something like a Schumacher http://store.schumachermart.com/se-1010-2.html won’t work just as well.

ALL battery technologies benefit from the use of
"smart" battery chargers that offer charge, top-off
and maintenance cycles. The charger you cited
doesn't cite this feature.
A really nice, low cost Schumacher product sold
at Wallmart is the 1562 series critters cited in
http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles/Batteries/Multiple_Battery_Myths_A.pdf
and illustrated here:

Schumacher makes a range of smart chargers identifiable
by the word "maintainer" in their descriptions. These
include the SC600, SC1000, SC1200, etc.
The idea that one should finely tune a plug-in-the-wall
battery charger to the brand/technology of the battery
is not supported by the way we charge batteries in our
vehicles and expect years of service life.
Consider also a variety of small battery charger/maintainers
like:
