Floating vs Storage Voltage Question
Moved this from another thread to open the topic generally. Question was if PD converters with the 13.2 storage voltage were compatible with floating voltage specs at 13.5 and above. ---------------...

Was setting up the TC again and ran into where I had to pick to have the converter able to run the rig with the battery wires off so the battery is not on a float (which it is not supposed to be unless not using the rig for more than a month per AGM routine) the TC gets used a couple times a month but has a modified AGM (SiO2) battery bank. That means never being on a float according to Trojan.
So that brings up anybody with an Inverter/charger. You can't run the rig on the charger part and leave the batteries disconnected, no load, so to meet the Trojan battery guide "rules".
That means you must float the battery bank no matter what when on shore power for however long. If that ruins your batteries, too bad!
