Bulk-Absorption Charging Voltage
2 Concord 8D (258 AH each) Freedom 25 Inverter-Charger (130 amp) Trimetric 2025 Gauge I'm dry camping and charging my batteries. They were 30% discharged. My Concords call for 14.2-14.4v absorpti...

Moderator, thanks for moving my post to the proper forum.
I can't get to it right now. I'll be home tomorrow and I'll be able to get that measurement at the inverter. I have a Progressive Industries EMS unit on board. It indicates the generator is producing 110vac on each leg.
The Trimetric now shows a steady 14.1v and, as you indicated in your reply, the amperage has dropped from its starting point of 49 amps 34 amps (2 hours after start).
I understand the relationship between voltage and amperage but shouldn't I see the full bulk-absorption voltage right away with 30% discharged batteries? Thanks.

what is the AC voltage reading from the generator into the Freedom inverter charger
