Who wants to babysit some stupid batteries when camping? My time is worth a lot more that that.
A good 3-stage converter is worth it's price in gold.
The OP has solar. The most efficient way is to run gen until Iota comes out of bulk. Battery is then charged to 87%. The rest is done by solar.MEXICOWANDERER wrote:
It's near impossible to "beat" a manual control recharge for speed and economy by generator recharging. And the generator run time advantage is anything but subtle.
That's still babysitting and watching until an Iota comes out of bulk mode? Guess you can't win, Salvo, still gotta babysit, regardless of what your or my time is worth. May as well do it while cooking breakfast, making coffee, then eating and drinking it. Surf some internet, catch up on emails, charge the phone, that ought to about do it.
