Ohhhhhh Seeeeeen-yore!
Aren't thoust the one that said that particular CONVERTER/charger the Power Max is no longer available?
Remember the word Meanwell or Megawatt? They are cheaper than Mattel Playtoys. They are ideal for use with generators unless of course a person forgets and lets them charge for a couple of weeks
(Sarcasm)
Long ago on this forum, someone posted a timeline of different voltages and time at each voltage value to recharge a battery.
If a camper boondocks for a few weeks then returns home and plugs in for a few thousand hours a Mattel charge will slow down the capacity loss due to chronic sulfation.
The key is battery lifespan. Camping off-grid for one week a year really does not tax a battery. Boondocking 60 days a year really separates the wheat from the chaff. I went through an average of 260 hours daily with 38 cubic ft of refrigerator and freezer. This is at 24-volts. But Quicksilver has a 400 amp alternator. It charges 400 amps at a dead idle. I use a 50-amp rectifier to bias the voltage regulator sense lead when parked so voltage jumps six-tenths of a volt.
But I use 2 Megawatts on the banks when I get home.
