Is flooded equalization charge always timed?
I have (2) of the 6v interstate costco batteries. Would like to do an equalization charge on them. Using the Trojan users guide for directions. Trojan is saying to equalize for 2-4 hours. But it a...

So is it 14.8v or 14.7v? I had 14.8v stored to memory but trojan is saying 2.45v per cell.
When you set your meanwell charger to 14.8, what voltage do you measure at the terminals?
Im messing around now charging up batteries and struggling with that voltage drop. Soldered up a new charging lead with thick wires and still getting 0.12v loss.
You will get voltage drop every time anyway. Can't be helped. In the bulk stage with the higher amps there is more voltage drop between charger and battery. Voltage drop is less with the lower amps as they taper during the absorption stage.
You will only see the same voltage at the battery as at the charger when the battery is full and no more amps are flowing.
