And I am telling you that you can get a "multi-stage" charger without temp. compensation but not the other way around, as far as I know.
Please open and study the documents in the links that I provided above related to the 4400 and 5400 Parallax charger lines. Both series of chargers are in fact two-stage chargers, with both their lower voltage float range and their higher voltage boost range adjusted over wide variations in voltage - depending upon temperature - but with each of the ranges falling within two bands differing from each other depending what stage the battery is ready for.
As I said earlier, the 5400 series even adds power factor correction to their design.
