Hi Bob,
I was reviewing your files on.....
http://www.aeroelectric.com/Pictures/Curves/
Your lists are very much appreciated.
On this 'list' are two files for the Battery_Minder_Recharge.pdf.
Both of those files will not open in my cpu. All others on the list do open
normally. Before I get into my cpu, I thought possibly you could look at
the files and see if they got corrupted by a gremlin of sorts.....

Behaviors for several Schumacher products are plotted
there. We don't know why they all differ but we DO know
that putting any RG battery on a constant "recharge"
voltage or "trickle" charge current will kill it over
time.
If you see anything that looks like a "top off" behavior
followed by an extended period of "relaxation" where
the voltage drops below 14 volts, there is a strong
likelihood that the device is doing good things for
your RG battery.

charging at 15.6V. After 3 hrs, the float charge kicked in, hovering
around 14.6 volts. Later I believe I found a review on Amazon from
somebody who measured about the same voltages.
Don't know that I would call it "the best". I have no

I am mystified my friend. Both the Battery Minder and Battery Tender files
are pretty old and have been linked numerous times. I've just opened
them from this computer with no problems. You might reload your
Adobe Reader and see if that 'fixes' anything. Let me know
what you discover. First try right-clicking to download the
files to your hard drive and THEN see if your computer will
open them. It might be a 'linkage' thing between your browser
and the PDF reader.

Bob,
You were correct that there is a linking problem. I was able to save it to
the HD and then, was able to open it with my Adobe Reader 9.2. However,
when 9.2 opened the file it popped this error message.....(see attachment).
I have never seen this message before. Funny that all other files on your
list open normally and these 2 do not. I wonder if I update 9.2 to 9.3 if
that would solve the linking problem.
Your suggestions.....
David

Both opened on my computer. I'm running Linux and opened them with the
Firefox plugin for pdfs.
Just another data point.
Hope this helps.

Both files (and others on the site) opened fine for me using both Adobe reader (9.3.2) and also Foxit reader.(3.1.4.1125)

Hi David,
I see one called battery minder and another called battery tender; both
open on my old xp machine with whatever version of pdf reader is used by
the Google Chrome browser.

Bob,
Problem of opening old .pdf file fixed.
However, I am not sure of a specific fix.
I uninstalled my latest (AR) Adobe Reader 9.2, followed by a reboot and
installed AR 9.3. After it came up and went through its 'acceptance', etc.,
then all the .pdf files on you "curves" file link would open as normal.
It's good to have a repair work but, it would have been better to know the
specific reason my AR 9.2 did not work.
David
PS: for some you going through similar updating for PDF files, you should
know that the newest version does not function until you try and open a .pdf
file. Then, it comes up with the legal jargon that one must sign on to
before new version of AR go into operation.
