Long charge time
First I want to thank Roy, Mex, Piano and others for posting good electrical info on here. I have now installed a PD4655 converter, 4 new 6 volts, 6 gauge wire from converter to batteries and batter...

Get that charge controller as close to the batteries as you can get with the four gauge wire. you will still need a manual charger to get the voltage at the batteries up to 16.0 Voltsto equalize charge the batteries.
Thats what I was afraid someone was going to say. :) Well not afraid but I know how voltage drop works so I'm not surprised. Ok so lets just leave the pd4655 where it is. I like it and it seems like a quality product so lets just move on to what else I can do to make this work as fast as possible. Should I just buy another charger and mount it close to the pack for the times I need to hammer it quickly? What should I buy. As I go to a high charge voltage I dont want to damage my frig so should I isolate and do 2 banks? One to keep things running while the other charges?
