Help with Battery!

A lot of these "Smart Chargers" will not charge a battery if the voltage is too low. (About 6 Volts). Have you put a multimeter on it to see what voltage is there? if it is below 6V then a good old fashioned charger will be required to charge it initially above the smart charger low voltage cut off point.

Do you notice significant difference with this battery considering the recommended battery for the storm is 10mAh this is labeled as a 14, which does not follow the model codes.

If you can get your hands on an old style battery charger which can push 9 or 10 amps and give it a good stinging until it bubbles and boils, that will do it.Works for me

Wow is that classified as Assault on Battery....

Perhaps, but it wasn't entirely his volt.
Watt lead him to it?
He was positive it would fix his cycle, but in the end- guilty as chargered.
