[AT] Batteries

[Bo Hinch]

I would get a quart of epson salt and a gallon of distilled water , bring
the water to a boil , then add the epson salt and make sure it is all
dissolved , let it cool then fill each compartment . Hook up a good 6 volt
charger and let slow charge for at least 24 hours . This works 95 % of the
time . Good luck .
