Thanks MrWizzard. Apparently this converter is different. It appears that you actually can control the charging amps to the battery. I'm wonder what to set for 2x220A golf cart batteries? Below is a quote from the manual:
"SETUP: 05 Charge Rate - Used to set the maximum charge rate allowed to charge the batteries during bulk, absorption, float and equalize charging.
Selections are ‘Max Charge = 0%’ up to ‘Max Charge = 100%. The Max Charge = 0% setting is available to help minimize charging while continuing to allow pass-thru power. The rest of the selections are provided
to limit the charge rate to the battery bank, which helps prevent battery
overheating caused by charging at too high a charge rate.
The Max Charge selections are provided as a percentage of the inverter/
charger’s maximum charging capability. Refer to label on the side of the
inverter or the operator’s manual for the inverter/charger to determine its
maximum charge rate. Once you find this maximum charge rate, determine
the percentage needed to limit the charge rate to your battery-bank.
For example, if the maximum charge rate of your inverter/charger is 100 amps and you need to limit the charge rate to 50 amps, choose the Max Charge = 50% selection (50 amps = 50% of 100 amps)."
