Tech It Out continued... Dos & Don’ts DO: Stay with one battery chemistry (flooded, gel, or AGM). Mixing battery types can result in under- or overcharging. DON’T: Mix old batteries with new ones in the same bank. Old batteries, like negative people, often pull down the new ones to their deteriorated state.

DO: Keep batteries clean, cool and dry. Check terminal connectors regularly to avoid loss of conductivity. Clean corrosion with baking soda and water mixture.

DON’T: Leave batteries in a discharged state; this damages them and lowers their capacity.

PIER 7

Marina

EDgEwatEr, MD

Pier 7 Marina is located on the South River, 4 short miles from the beautiful Chesapeake Bay. A quick left turn up into the Severn River and you’ll be in the heart of Annapolis City Dock with all the shops history and excitement the capital of Maryland has to offer...minus the hefty price tag of slips and restaurants in Annapolis.
