Never had this much battery capacity before - Hope I don't blow up something...
I doubt you will "blow things up" but remember with that much capacity it will take a lot longer to recharge with your current charger.
I will have 60A available using multiple smart mode charging voltages using my PD9260C converter/charger...
To be safe I probably should order the 80A version which also has 14.8VDC charging mode...
Had not thought about not having enough charger. Right now i am running my 2KW Generator for three hours to use my on-board PD9260C to charge my three 85AH Interstates. How much longer do you think I will need to run my generator for two paralleled groups of two 6V batteries wired in series. Guess I can charge a single group of two 6V batteries in series if I have to... Where I camp at in the Natl Forest has generator run time restrictions... Running the generator three hours in the early mornings worked out great for me...
