Magnum MS2812 'Absorb Done' settings
Hi All, I've my replacement X's 4 Lifeline L16's installed in the coach. Lifeline has been just top notch to work with during this adventure. And are doing sort of a post mortem on my old bank ...

Since Lifeline's Tech Manual indicates my battery bank will be Fully Charged when Ending Amps reach 4 Amps (800AH's X .05%) - I'm wondering why not setting the 'Absorb Done' to Amps and a value of 4 Amps is not a better way to go then Time?
Would appreciate any opinions or input on this...
You need to add the parasitic draw to the 4A. E.g., if you run a satellite receiver that draws 3A while charging, your charge cutoff would be 4+3=7A. I wonder how long that would go on charging.
