I have a Kuboda L 3560 and would like to trickle charge the battery. The charger wants you to select either a Lithium or(LiFePO4) or Lead Acid battery to charge.

Which mode should I use.

Thanks,

Bert

Lead acid. I doubt you have a Lithium battery. If you do, you have way more money than I do. Lithium batteries of the size that are required to start an engine are upwards of a thousand bucks.

I like that "Lifetime Warranty."

Might be just the thing for a tractor collector with a dozen or more restored tractors in the barn.

12 volt, 100 amp hour = $1249.00. You can buy a bunch of conventional flooded cell jars for that.......:eek:

Those are the hot item for RV's today until people find out the cost that is. My RV has a bank of conventional flooded cell batteries, I'm fine with that.

Maybe when they start to repurpose the batteries used in electrical cars the price will drop. (ie: to maintain range)

There has been talk about using initial battery life in cars/trucks and then repurposing them in less critical applications as the battery capacity decreases with age. Maybe the RV market will benefit from this at some point.

Don't know. I don't care much for them anyway. Even takes a special charger to charge them up. Only good thing is, no external venting and can be used upside down.
