You are confusing charge RATE with continued charging after the Magnum has fully charged the coach batteries. Regardless of the charge RATE, it will go to Float charge eventually and THAT voltage is below the BIRD 13.3 threshold to keep the solenoid that combines BOTH battery banks closed to charge the Chassis battery bank. Both Magnum and Xantrex you can modify the charge rate to your liking. Doug
Call the manufacturer's 1-800 number they will talk you thru the procedure to set the float charge above 13.4, my Magnum will keep my chassis battery charged. and my batteries will not boil like they did on the old Heart inverter/charger.
