Appreciate some guidance from those who know teacher

How do i check my trickle charger is actually being intelligent and working properly i.e. providing the correct voltage, the right amperage, making the right self adjustments over time, switching off when battery is charged etc etc

Maybe just coincidental, but 3 failed censoredbatteries after charging seems to be pointing a finger redcard

TIA

Is it a Maypole smart charger by any chance? I binned one recently, the voltage on its gauge was out, it was doing all sorts of weird stuff.
The culprit is a CTEK and having done a good decade of work I really cannot complain.

Thanks everyone for the guidance, I'll run the suggested tests.
