I am guessing here, but I think once you hit your bulk voltage peak, this unit probably switches to 13.6 or 13.7 V maintenance charging for perhaps the rest of the day, I don't think it can be good to hit your battery every day with 14.8 to 15 volts, and hold it there. Once a week, sure, but day in, day out? Spike it up there, briefly, and then let it go into maintenance mode. Charge all your other electrical junk once your battery bank is topped off and the sun is still pretty high in the sky, and you have surplus solar capacity.
