Rikk, the 8v one is the bad one. If you use a specific gravity
meter (Hygrometer?) you will most likely find that 4 cells are
fully charged and two are toast. There was a lot of discussion on
the list a while back about a chemical additive (EDTA?) that
somehow brings cells back from the dead. I'm sure others will
reply with the details.
