Cecil,
If you have an issue with them taking a charge on deep cycle, now that the fluid level has been corrected, try charging them on a "standard" charge of 10 amps for 5-10 minutes. This may break any build up the plates have on them from low fluid level. It has worked for me a time or two.
I'll keep that in mind.
Not giving up yet but I'm skeptical I didn't ruin them.
