Makes sense. Interesting scenario to put RV away once batts are full after getting home. Means leave it at 14.8 till hydrometer shows batts are to full SG. No drop to Float and anyway the OEM converter can do that.
Use fat gauge cable with Parrot Clamps instead of skinny gauge cable with long clamps that don't grip well. Note cu-al has less ampacity for its gauge than cu. Adapters on ends of cut stranded cable hold in the set screw terminals better. Fine strands hard to tighten down on. Terminals can take #4 if twisted tight. I put red tape by the pos terminal. Hard to see the + sign.
