Most deep cycle batteries are spec'd to be bulk charged at 14.4 volts but IIRC Trojans require 14.8 volts so you'd want to consider that when selecting an appropriate charger.

I looked it up. For a pair of T105s (6v each), Trojan recommends a bulk/float/equalize charging voltage of 14.8/13.5/16.2. I have not found ANY automatic charger that meets those voltages "out of the box". Most automatic, multi-stage chargers charge at several 1/10th of a volt below those number and can NOT be adjusted.
So what's your point in directing your comments at me when I'm not the one asking or buying new batteries and a converter? :S My point was that if the OP is talking Trojan batteries then he ought to consider the manufacturer's charging recommendations, primary being a bulk charge voltage of 14.8 volts, not 14.4 volts. And yes Virginia there is a solution offered for this special case - Best Converter offers a modified PD9200 that will in fact do 14.8 volts. You might want to spend more time being helpful than wasting your time being critical of other forum members who are trying to help. :R
