Hey everyone... hope your summer has been as enjoyable as mine. (...loving the cooler than normal weather!!!) I recently installed a new pm4b 75amp charger and Trimetric meter. My batteries are 4 T...

I wrote a suggestion as to how to go about getting controlled amperage for a single battery. 100 watts worth of incandescent bulbs renders amperage close enough for 200 ampere hours.(end quote)

100w / 12v = 8.333a (close enough to 10)... 5amps per 100a/h of cap... this i get.

having to hook up light bulbs to my charging circuit when i can buy a variable rate power source... this i don't get. :)
