Battery charger choice for Optima type battery?

I work for the company thats owns Optima. Battery Tender is what I use, CTECH is good too. We also make our own charger now. The key with all the Optima whether red, yellow or blue is that the charge voltage can not go over 14.5volts. If you had a charger that put 500 amps thru a battery it would be fine in charging an Optima as long as the voltage stayed below 14.5 volts.
