What OBC are you guys using that puts out over 15 volts?
Well, for one the Magnetek 6300, it was designed in the days when power companies generally delivered 115 volts (I go back to 110 volt days) and today you find 120-125 in many parks.
IT had very poor regulation, in fact by my standards it had NO regulation, what it had was a ferroresonate transformer which sort of kind a regulates but not very well.
So, that is why it has a rep as a battery boiler.
Also any converter, if the pass transistor shorts.. You get overvoltage
