WFCO converter & battery questions
Okay, my '14 Premier Bullet 19FBPR came with this WFCO Power Converter w/ Distribution Panel. It's a 3-stage charger which (I gather from all my research) is good. http://www.wfcoelectronics.com/...

Hi,
The converter you have probably never gets to bulk mode, so it would take about 20 hours of generator run time to get from 50% to 90%
Here is a chart:
"The chart above shows the amount of time it took a PD9155 (55-amp) converter set to three different output voltages to recharge a 125 AH (Amp Hour) battery after it was fully discharged to 10.5-volts.
14.4-VOLTS (Boost Mode) – Returned the battery to 90% of full charge in approximately 3-hours. The battery reached full charge in approximately 11 hours.
13.6-VOLTS (Normal Mode) – Required 40-hours to return the battery to 90% of full charge and 78-hours to reach full charge.
13.2-VOLTS (Storage Mode) – Required 60-hours to return the battery to 90% of full charge and 100-hours to reach full charge."
