The most common form of charging for stationary
batteries is modified constant voltage, usually with currect limitation
to C/5 or C/10. The battery is permanently connected to the charger
which applies a constant voltage across the battery terminals.
Recommended

The following per-cell charge voltage are recommended.

Initial
charging
The whole charge should preferable be carried out at constant current.
The charging time is inversely proportional to the current which
is set by the current limit of the charging equipment.
Recommended rates for the first charging:
0.2C5A for 7 ~ 8 hours
0.1C5A for 14~16 hours
