External battery charger
Now and again I use an external three stage battery charger on my two 6 volts without disconnecting the batteries from the trailer. I have not had any issues so far but was recently told not a good id...

What I find irritating about automatic anything, is the marketing. 'Super duper whizz bang does everything but hook up the cords for you!!'
100% fully charging a battery requires absorption voltage be held for long enough. This is a moving target different for every battery, different as it ages and different for temperature and different depending on how depleted it was yet all the marketing pages claim to restore and fully charge automatically and recondition and wipe your heiney for you too.
A one size fits all automatic approach is insulting, to me, but perhaps soothing to those who really do not know, or care to know.
Blinking green lights is all that matters, and something to complain about when the battery fails. Indignation is the new black.
I'm gonna put my Schumacher back together and let it loose on my screwy31, then after it flashes the soothing green light, supposing it does not goto 16.4v or higher and shut itself off, and see how many more AH my Meanwell can stuff into it before Sg no longer rises.
Ah never mind, whats the point? Actual Data means nothing, compared to a marketing page and blinking green lights, to somebody defending their purchase and their misplaced faith.
