Like you said "Specs indicate that +12v is at 34amps." That means it can put out 34 amps at 12 volts.......Thats enough to run 9 chargers charging a 6 cell at 5 amps each!!!
That's cool. I was confused that the -12v is rated at 0.8amps
Thanks for the link, I have searched, and there is actually a lot of articles about this. I like this one better.
Attatching the batery to any of the cores of this power suply will instantly destroy it. The reason is that it possibly has no Diodes to block the incoming current from the battery to the power suply. That's the basic difference between Chargers and power suplies. You need an extra circuit to make it work. With double diodes and ayto cut-off system at reverse polarities and when the battery is fully charged to avoid its destruction.
That was really not the plan.
