Seems to me, if using 12v panels, if all you ever did was bulk charging, you wouldn't need a controller at all. And if you were to de-rate the 12v panels to max out at say 14.8v, you could abs charge without a controller, as well?
And yes, I do realize at times there would be insufficient voltage available for charging, but in a pinch, say if one's controller crapped out, couldn't you just use a direct connection?
