Changing from flooded batteries to GEL batteries requires more than that, first you need to know which charger you have (Schott, Zivan or Delta-Q) if your GEM...

Lew, That's correct. The GEM dealer in Orlando told me to select that setting because my batteries were not getting a full charge. It still hasn't completely...
