i've only had the new installs (charger and meter) for a couple charges now, so i'm just getting familiar with the new set-up. during the first charge, the meter was not hooked up yet, but i needed to charge right away. the second charge was done a couple days later, after little discharge. the 75 amp charger went into the 14.6v boost mode for only a short period (15 minutes maybe), and started at around 35 amps. so that seems to indicate a good read of the battery soc by the charger. it then dropped to 0.0amps momentarily as it kicked into the 13.6v absorption mode. it then ramped up to a little over 10 amps, and continued in absorption mode for about 5 hours, during which the amps dropped slowly to 2.4a, at which time it was after 11pm, so i shut it down.
If charging on generator I would probably shut down as charging dropped to 13.6 volts. At home you can leave it at 13.6 indefinitely. No need to shut down. All seems to be operating normal.
