0.0 amps at 15.1v on an AGM
I've been using the 0.5% of capacity at 14.46v as an indicator as to when to stop charging my Northstar group 27 AGM. But I have also let voltage to stay at 14.46 overnight, and the Ammeter reads 0...

A higher absorption voltage would likely extend the time needed between high amp recharges.
Northstar says nothing about EQ voltages on their AGM. This is currently my only battery, for engine and house so NOT having to do 16v EQ's every 14 days, like the screwy31 required, is nice.
This time of year there 200 watts is not really enough on its own to even return my AH counter to zero, it depends on the laptop usage, so the meanwell or alternator are required anyway, and they fulfill that high amp recharge requirement.
This thread was more an observation than a complaint. Bringing an AGM to a dead stop at absorption voltage is just interesting. Was thinking I could bump up voltage to 16v and it might require only 0.0x amps to be held that high too.
