What can you tell me about my converter/charger?
My gal has got herself a 2010 Jayco x17z hybrid RV. From what I could find, it comes with an IOTA 45 amp converter/charger. We will be doing some dry camping and running the generator (2000w inverter style) for a short period of time during the day to recharge the battery.
The battery that was on the RV had a broken case (I think maybe it froze and split) so I am replacing it with a Group 31 to get the most aH out of a single battery.
What I'd like to know is what is the charging like from a 45 amp IOTA converter charger from 2010? Is it based on time? Does it sense voltage of the battery and adjust the charge accordingly? I went to the IOTA website, but all they have is info on their current products, and I don't know how much they have changed (if at all). What I want to avoid is an undercharged or overcharged (boiled) battery.
