That said the OP is one of the very very few that I've know that was able to get the WFCO into the constant current mode. most I've seen almost immediately drop into the 13.6 constant voltage mode. wrote:
Can you explain this better?
So the comments I have read above even the PD's show a low voltage when initially plugged in with higher amps .. As theory goes high amps lower voltage.
Even though I do not see said 14.4 at the converter terminals it may be in that 14.4 mode right? Because of said amps. This may just be the algorithm of the wfco.
And the wfco will hold said amps until it drops out... Im thinking when batts reach 13.4? volts, hench why you dont see the batts reach 14.4..
Now when talking to the wfco tech I brought up the same point to him. I tried to compare it to my solar..
Mu solar will charge ar bulk 14.7 until the batts reach 14.7. The amps will stay maxed at what the solar can produce with the controller. With mine its 20 amps max. Common I see is 17 amps. Then the solar will go to absorp stage and amps then taper.
Tech stated the wfco's dont work like that
And I understand the 14.7 thing will charge faster.
But is it true say the wfco charging at 30 amps 13.6 vs the PD at 14.4 20 amps ( lower volts = more amps) it would be a wash?
