charging kinetik batteries question

[gqjeff 10+ year member]

4.5 and 4.7 volts pre-charge testing. My charger was charging at 13.6 volts at 12 amps for 5 hrs to get them to 6.7 and 6.9.

4.5 volts is like beyond dead, I have had 600's sit for 7 months and still read 12.6v

"Beyond dead" is right. Batteries should never get that low, even when 'dead'. Something is very wrong there besides simply sitting for several months.
