Some Micrococcus are pigmented bacteria; for example, M. luteus produces yellow colonies and M. roseus produces redish colonies. Micrococcus species are oxidase-positive, which can be used to distinguish them from other bacteria like most Staphylococcus species, which are generally oxidase-negative.
A fully charged â12 voltâ battery will be at about 12.6V The charger may well take it up to 14.4 or so while charging. About 12.2 volts is 50% and 11.8 is approaching dead. (these voltages at no load, the battery at rest). Anything under 11.0 may indicate a dead cell.
This gets about 75% capacity back into the battery quickly but then takes a long time to. restore the other 25%. A bad FLOAT charger commences charging at the rated current but as the battery takes the. charge, its voltage rises and the current drops off long before the float voltage is reached.
