Hi Roger, right now I have it on a 12 amp charger over night, and I'll
check it in the morning to see if I've made any progress. I have a
battery tender as well, but I don't think it's up for the job. I did add
distilled water to the holes as well, they were a little low.

The other worked but didn’t seem to have the same capacity as before so I finally turned it in as a core.  But I at least got several more months of use out of that one.
