How long should I leave a battery on charge
Start with checking/testing condition of battery and battery connections.
Stop driving until the charging system and battery have been checked for an overcharging condition.
If you question the condition of your vehicles battery, drive to your local auto parts store and they can test the battery and the charging system of the vehicle for you at no cost.
Bearing failure. Have the alternator tested. describe the whine - is it proportional to the speed? It oculd be because of the load and the charging - how is your battery condition? Did it do this before? Bearing failure. Have the alternator tested. describe the whine - is it proportional to the speed?

It shows that your battery is in workable condition and your alternator is charging as it should.
Try charging at a lower rate of amperage, also check condition of battery with a battery tester, under a load.
Probably indicates an undercharge condition. Check the alternetor output voltage and check for good connections..
It will read 12.6 volts - thirty minutes after charging.
Check battery voltage (14.4), check starter solenoid, check battery cable condition, check battery terminal condition, check plug wire condition
Actually, if the condition of the patient's heart, drug intake, and metabolic condition remain the same, the ICD requires only periodic checking every two months or so for battery strength and function.
Ruin the battery.
No, you must have a charged battery for the alternator to work.Here's an explanation of how the charging system works:http://www.ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/repair-topics/alternator-generator/testing-an-alternator-without-blowing-it-sky-high
