If I went to a Progressive Dynamics retrofit I'd be re-conductoring to #1 or #2 wire from the converter to the batteries. I was reading that their charging profile is to pack 14.4 or 14.6 volts to 90% of the charge. Then somewhat float it up to 100% with 13.5-ish volts? To me this doesn't really seem like that great of "wizardry" even though it's called the charge wizard.
You were informed wrong.
Absorption is 14.4 volts same as bulk Just current is lower
when full it drops to 13.x and then after 20 hours kicks back up for like 15 minutes to keep things stirred up a bit. (Equalization and anti-stratification)
My OEM interstates lasted 9 years with moderate addition of Water.
I have done some research and frankly believe the Wizard to be the best charge controller made.
