Yamaha 2400 generator's on-board 12V charger
Not related to charging my TT batteries, but a question about the on-board 12V charging system in my Yamaha 2400 inverter generator. The other weekend I needed to fire up my new-to-me riding lawnmowe...

I was expecting the charger to provide a regulated constant voltage in the high 12's to low 13's. Instead, the voltage reading across the terminals continued to rise.
Initially the dead battery was pulling down the voltage as it absorbed what the generator put out.
As the battery charged, it pulled down the voltage less. Until the generator voltage is reached, it will keep pulling up the battery voltage. Eventually, that is a bad thing for the battery.
