Landyacht,
You may be correct but considering its features I believe it is worth it. On a $50K+ RV what is another $500? It has settings for most common battery technologies, has temperature compensation, can do a real equalization and can charge two different banks at once. With all the posts here regarding care of batteries and converter manufacturers failure to make a converter that will meet the recommended battery charging specifications, I don't feel it is too expensive. Besides, the replacement cost of a battery bank can exceed the cost of this charger. I wouldn't want to trust the care of an expensive bank on a compromise converter/charger that is a one size fits all. It also has an optional remote that can control all functions from inside the RV while giving visual feedback of what is happening to your batteries.
