the 8 hour period was just a guess on my part. i was simply looking at how long it took the pm to go into float, after doing its 15 minute (obligatory) boost, as per its programming. originally i started with -EDIT--12.6-- batt volts. the pm started at 43a and dropped to 33a in 15 minutes. (perhaps this means nothing? and that's one thing i hope to find out by starting at a much lower SOC.) so i figured, the 75a pm might take 2 - 3 hours to boost. then i guessed the peak would take 4 - 5 hours to do its thing in abs. and, i would need time along the way to take readings. so i figured about 8 hours total with a 14.6v / 75a boost, and a 14.6/8?v / 40a (then tapering) abs charge. i guess time will tell. (no pun intended)
