QUESTIONS re: MEGA-WATT 33-AMP POWER SUPPLY
This critter can be found on eBay. It is a switching type power supply. Supposed to have an ultimate amperage potential of 33, voltage adjustment of 10, to 15, and work fine as a long term battery ...

Something that adjusts as to when it's -6C to when it's 43C.
Where do you store your batteries that it's 43C in the 661 area code? I thought you go to the beach, with onshore flows in your Class A?
This is to just hit the batteries up front for a 50 to 90% charge, and you get to baby sit it if you want the Full Monty 100%, or set your solar panel system up for that Equalize charge blast to 16.0V or a specific gravity of 1.275 or better.
Basically, it's a timed manual charger, to get you from 50 to 90%, while boondocking... that's it. It doesn't do maintenance charge or float charge or equalize charging... it's a basic, serious, dry camping model of sorts, that's about it. Unless you do the tweaks voodoo that Mex or others figure out or suggest, to get resistors in there for multiple voltage capabilities.
All I interpret it as is a down and dirty 50-90% charger, that you time to control it. Very, very, very basic. You might get to tailor it to your Trojans, the 12v ones that like 15.0V daily, or tweak it perfectly for your AGM batteries at 14.4V, or whatever your battery manufacturer specifies, for voltage per cell.
You get to play engineer, but also remember, if you push things too hard, or twist it up over 15V, with the batteries still live and hooked up, you can fry electrical on your rig... electric panels on refrigerators, TV's, electronics, what ever.
