I can see 14.0v if the charger is still connected but the battery can only hold 12.0 (2v/cell x 6 cells).

I had to say that to stay on subject as I really want to see that charger. Sears I presume?

Not Sears. An old Electromite, made in USA. My older brother gave it to me in 1973. I don't know how many years he had it, but he wouldn't have given it to me if it was new lol. Been dropped several dozen times so the amperage gauge doesn't work. I use it on car, truck, RV and motorcycle batteries.
