Default battery charge rate

Years ago , I replaced my PIK 20E SLA starter bat with an 8AH
Odyssey; as it did not come with specific charging data, I used a
1A charger when needed .

Thanks to our EAA president, it appears that Odyssey bats should be charged
at a much high rate than SLA. 40% of the AH capacity, in amps
3 A for mine.
