Dear Gerhard,
John and I took a look at your battery charging graph on the wiki
page. We believe that your batteries are fully charged. We draw
this conclusion from a number of points, which you can use as points
of reference for the future.
1) The voltage is over 15 volts.
2) The big dips in voltage during the process, which are large
inpedance drops in the battery, have all but stopped.
3) The voltage has dropped slightly below its peak, and is not
regaining its former top value.
These are the best indicators. Also, feel free to put your ear right
up to the battery. If you hear any sounds inside the battery, it
means the electrolyte is boiling. Also, a sure sign that the battery
is at or near its top voltage.
Sterling must have misunderstood what I told him when he said that
the voltage would "drop at a slow, steady rate". It should
essentially plateau slightly below its peak value and hold steady.
I hope this clarifies the issue for you.
Peter
