Let it charge. Keep an eye on it but it will drop to 13.2 My Progressive Dynamics will take a day or more and will eventually drop. Converters and real battery chargers are not created equal. As mex says, you do want to know what it takes to reach full SG and recognize your converters ability and you wont have to check it all the time.
so i'm not the only one with this issue... good to know. i think maybe it's all part of having a fairly large battery bank?
i very rarely have access to shore power, and obviously running the gennie for 24+ hours isn't an option, so i'll have to arrange something where i can hook up for at least a couple days just to determine whether or not the charger will drop into float.
in the meantime, however, i cannot charge my bank 24/7, so i still need to know what constitutes a reasonably "full" charge... so that i don't continually under charge. i guess i'll have to do several SG readings after bringing the batteries to various charge current readings, i.e; down to 8a, 7a, 6a, etc.
