[VAL] Optima Battery



To the group. I was wondering about Optima Batteries and recharging them with a vehicle. 
I remember that several people said if you got an Optima you needed to get a modern 
battery charger because overcharging them kills them. Being that automobile charging 
systems run over 12V, up around 14V according to my gauge on the dash, would that toast 
the battery if you charged with the vehicle as you drove down the road.
