When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery 17.1
is capable of accepting a normal charge. Double check all
connections, the AC outlet for a full 120-volts, the charger clips for
correct polarity and the quality of the connections from the cables
to the clips and from the clips to the battery system. The clips
must be clean.

dangerous and damaging to a battery to force higher amperage
into it than it can effectively use in recharging.
