All i use is a 12 volt battery charger to charge my gell cell for my starter box. Clip on the leads (+) & (-) and charger it for 4 - 6 hours. Always works for me.

bad boy: no... you cant use the intellipeak to charge that battery... The big battery you have is a 12 volt lead acid gel cell battery and the intellipeak doesn't charge lead acid, only nicd and nimh...

get a 12v wall charger at about 1 amp
