Not true.
Very low batteries could start as low as 12.8 to 13.2, at maximum amperage.
As the voltage comes up, the amps taper down. You will not see 14+ volts till batts are 70-80% ??
That's not accurate either, The voltage should jump up to the bulk rate within a few seconds. My PDI 9620 is at 14.X and 55 amps to the batteries after a deep discharge within 30 seconds.
I would suspect the battery is shorted if it wont allow 14V.
