I have a friend who was given 2 new blue top batteries, one brand new the other about a year old. Both need charging. A fast charge is required, tell me the best way to charge each, I have a 2/10/50 amp charger.

I have 2 of the 4 batteries in my boat are blue tops and I'll be adding two more this summer, and the only problem I have with them is they are 250$ each, other than that they are great
Why so expensive?
are they gel cell?

I know its not multibank but I dont need multibank and not willing to pay for convenience of a waterproof marine charger when the pigtail can stay connected to the single batt. I can plug it in when home without lifting a cover. BTW if fast isnt needed, the 6 amp is only $30-40.
who would pay that much for those? lol
Whats the voltage now? if they're pretty far down run it on 10a for a few hours then step down to 2a. lessen the chance to overcharge.
well I will pay that much for those....hold charge awesome and I have now had mine going on 7 years
