PD9245 and Lifeline GPL-31XT testing
I just acquired a Progressive Dynamics PD9245 converter to specifically charge a New Lifeline AGM GPL-31Xt at 125AH capacity. I tested the converter tonight on a different battery, and saw Voltages...

For questions challenging manufacturer's explicit recommendations may I suggest spending a miniscule amount of energy and effort and contact the manufacturer directly. I did re the 13.2 float voltage and three weeks later schazaam the float voltage upper limit magically jumped to 13.4
I would hate think being in an incredibly remote location down here I had some special ability to gain knowledge of these facts over people living in the USA.
Internet searches are NOT the way to be assured of gaining accurate facts. And especially depressing are folks who do little if any actual fact gathering then start spouting gospel that is inaccurate.
A responsible company like Concorde is not going to let an educated salesman (applications engineer)run amok on the telephone spouting inaccurate information. I have encountered flaky companies who really do not belong in the business of manufacturing technical gear but they are in a minority.
Close the lid on the laptop and grab the cellular. Items re-branded in the USA but manufactured in China seldom have competent representation. I am glad I am out of the alternator rebuilding business because speaking with Chinese engineers would be a nightmare, modifications and upgrades are products of committee, and losing face haunts every design revision. Not like the good old days of hashing things out with Big Al Renard and Frank Oropeza of Transpo.
BUT Concorde Lifeline is a USA company working under Mil-Spec constraints. And minimum charging rates are indeed covered extensively and they would be glad to emphasize the how and why's over the phone.
