I don't understand this. I don't want current limiting, I want to maintain the current higher at some constant DC amps instead of it tapering as battery voltage rises.
Right now, each battery is at full where it accepts about that 0.5a/100AH at 14.7v Floating now at 13.6v. If I put my charger on set to 16.2, amps will jump to not very many, and then battery voltage will hit 16.2 almost right away.
Amps will taper if I leave it running at 16.2. But Mex said to quit when you get to 16.2.
I cannot see howinheck I can shove 15 amps in when that is way above the acceptance rate at those voltages.
BTW I just finished adding the two (full) Wet 27DCs to the (full) AGM bank so that got done. I cranked the charger to 14.7 and amps went to around 3 amps and then quickly fell to 0.3 amps for the whole shebang. So I cranked it down to 13.6 again.
Now I need to try it out as though camping (or go camping).
