float voltage
I am dealing with AGm batteries that have a suggested float of between 13.5 and 13.8 What may happen if they are only 'fed' at 13.2 for a float voltage via solar panels during storage? The solar sy...

Phil, at -40 I will need temperature compensation.
-40 .... are you kiddin' me?! With the upper atmosphere CO2 levels where they're headed .... is anywhere on the planet going to get down to that level anymore?
Methinks that high temperature compensation for battery charging is going to be the name of the game going forward. In the not too distant future lead acid battery charging boost voltages need only be 13.8 volts and floats need only be at 12.6 volts ... of course by then RV'ers (my grandkids?) may/will be off lead acid altogether and onto aluminum-ion graphite batteries or quantum batteries. ;)
