You read it right , when I got my PowerMax it didn't perform like a manual charger even though it had the potentiometer.
After removing resister 1 it now stays at any voltage I set it too like its supposed to.
Really no need for a switch because if you want it at 13.6 volts just dial it to 13.6 volts with the pot.
Way to go ... that appears like you accomplished very quickly and cleanly what many in these forums are trying to arrive at by messing around with adding separate potentiometers onto/into various standalone power supplies. Way to go!
What there trying to do is totally different , there power supplies came with no pot so they added one , mine came with a pot but resister R1
was giving me issues.
What they are doing is buying a power supply and making a adjustable charger by adding the pot , in the end they're getting a nice adjustable power supply for a way cheaper price.
The PowerMax costs twice as much but is already set up.
