I have a two year old trolling motor battery. I use a regular Exide recharger (regular plug-in type)
It seems that this year it really takes a long time to recharge the battery. It was very low on Sunday and it has been recharging all week, but it still is not near a 100% charge.
Is the battery bad, just taking a long time b/c it was very low, or is the charger itself gone bad? Or do I just need patience?
This is a big battery - perhaps it needs a few days charging to get to full? Also, do you put the clips on the bigger terminals or the smaller terminals that you screw down the connections?
