Loving the replies.
From the genuine, the doubters, the knockers, the helpful, the "told you so". Ahh, the rich tapestry of life.
I'm going to run a book on whether:
a) the battery ever starts the car
b) I earn myself a Darwin award in doing so
Anyway, not had much time today to get back to it, too much work to do 😞
However, the battery is on it's slow charge, and now registers 1 amp, which I think is about twice as much as yesterday.
Maybe this is progress.
For what its worth, I'm with the doubters...I'll probably be buying a new battery in a couple of days.
