I recommend the Battery Tender brand.

Yes it will go through equalization every time. However the cycle is shorter and the equalization is limited to 2 amps to avoid the excessive bubbling. This slows the rise in voltage and slamming the batteries at max for hours.

I used this (12v version) on my golf batteries in the RV for 20 years and it works perfectly as expected. Never felt there was an excessive overcharge during the equalization.
