You're also going to find the LK will stop at 13.8 volts in the bulk mode and never fully charge in the 3 stage mode. Have one on my bench as we speak. You need the Boondocker for 14.7 bulk. We're doing several upgrades this weekend on a small fleet of trucks and there is a difference. I'm actually trying to get them to give us 14.9 bulk but in the auto mode but not getting anywhere. PDI is willing .
The one on your bench would not be deck mount PM3-LK then. I suspect it is a version of a PPC "lower portion" converter, which is still under development for its charging profile, but which will include a boost voltage of approx. 14.5v when it is finished.
Be interesting if you could post a photo of it and show its brand label with model number etc. Also where did you get it? There has to be a story there.
Your Boondocker you have said is a 1260, must be a modified version of that from what you have also said, not clear exactly. Where did you get that and what was done to it by whom? You did say it has a different charging profile that includes a two-hour bulk stage, eg.
You seem to know a lot. Mine came from Best and it's clearly different than the Powermax you are proud of. I only know it has a higher boost voltage. I do think you are paid by them. I was told they start with a higher amp unit and derate them and even cost more to do that.
