How long is "all night long"? I have read and told by others, for a brand new battery, you want to do 1.5amp or 2amp on slow charge for 18-24 hours. The first charge is the most IMPORTANT charge of the batteries life. Say if you charge 50% of it and use it, you will never be able to charge the battery any higher than 50%.
