  Ok, so now I had to go look at my battery charger.  It's made by the
Schumacher Electric Company of

Chicago, IL  (Hi Ted Schumacher - any relation?).  They are still in
business and are still making battery

chargers although I'm sure they're a bit more modern than this dinosaur (it
must be close to 30 years old). 

No idea where I got it - all I know is it still works and works better that
any of the new ones I've tried.

Re:  Battery Troubles now Chargers

I've got a circa 1980 Montgomery Ward 10amp charger that still is my go to
charger for flat batteries.  Not too big and not too small, just right.  No
label on it saying who made it but you can be sure it wasn't Montgomery
Ward.  I did break down and buy a modern jump box for jumping cars with
dead batteries.  Much easier than jumper cables and hauling a spare battery
or maneuvering another car into position.

Schumacher used to be good, but the last couple chargers I bought from them
did not last very long.  They worked great, till they didn't.  I think I
got five years out of one and about three out of the other.
