<VV> Battery Charging

I think you are in for a long and fruitless wait.  The trickle charger
will maintain a float charge, but I doubt that it would bring up a
battery at 10V if you had it hooked up for a year.

Your time would be better spent either looking for your REAL charger or
going to the store and picking up a new one.
