I suppose I will have to get some sort of manual charger. And try to get them to the charging threshold...
Also, I do have a battery tender. Could I try trickle charging it? I assume it’s for a 12v battery though.
I'd split it into two 12v packs, wire those in parallel, and put the Battery Tender on it.
At even 1 amp you can start those ions shuffling back in the right direction. It will sit at the starting voltage for a Very long time, but if the cells are OK, then you would eventually fully charge the 12v pack. I've done it with these 280ah cells using a Battery Tender (with lithium setting). If you don't have some way of monitoring individual cells then stop if it ever gets in the middle of the range, say 13.2 V.
