Sealed lead acid batteries are persnickety on charge voltageĀ levels. Too high and ya ruinĀ them. You need a controller that is adjustable so you don’t destroy your battery..

I suggest one of these..

Bulk.. 14.1 volts.. Float.. 13.6 volts.. Might take you a week to get the voltages set but it’s easy to understand and very reliable..
