Less than 16V is what I know and that's from MEX. Highest voltage in my usage was 15.7V but after my batts broke in I haven't gone past 15.5V. This isn't my forte but my understanding is there is no sulfation if SG is returned to OEM density. My batts have the same SG as new so when my SG is returned to that number (1.285), I assume no sulphation. As far as temp, I TRY only to do finishing charges and EQ's when batt temps are in the 70's F. Boost voltage in my case is 14.8V.
I see.
I can't know SG due to AGM. I pay no attention to temps and leave that up to my solar controllers to figure out the proper Voltages.
I don't pay any attention to finishing charges as well.
I will be testing capacity again in July to get a feeling of battery health. I use the separate AC powered chargers whenever I believe supplemental bulk charging is needed.
Again, I have no fears of sulfation while the maximum charging Voltage is 14.4 with my solar controllers.
