Installed the new battery today. Same WalMart low cost battery ($79). I like the WalMart batteries not only for the low cost but they are sealed (no caps). It's an effort to pull the battery and check acid level. I have it charging so I can get 100 % charge into it. I always find new batteries are not 100% charged. My same 14.50 volt power supply ran over one amp for an hour. Now it's 477 ma. after 4 hours charging. It may take another 12 to 24 hours to see when the charge current stops falling. Most of the time that is around 100 ma.

I could speed that up by charging at 15 volts but car is just sitting there anyway.
