I apply 14.8 volts until the battery cells start to bubble 2 per second. Then drop the voltage to 14.2 to finish up. Forty amps initially into a single 100 amp hour battery is not 30%* and it means a significant reduction in generator run time.
*What you can get without overvoltage initially
TIME (meaning a clock) how long it takes your battery to charge to 2 bubbles a second. Then get a timer and fine tune the time to get it down pat.
Time is MONEY and NOISE with a generator. I like to minimize it.
