Before I got my Meanwell rsp-500-15 my only method for getting the battery to 16V was resetting ABSv and float voltage to 16V on my solar controller, and I need at least 6.2 amps to get the screwy 31 up there.
Well my Schumacher sc2500a would occasionally go nuts and bring the battery upto 16.4v blasting it with 10+ amps, but that does not count.
Now it is just a twist of the dial.
I love the RC watt meters, although my GTpower version is inaccurate at very low currents.
I removed the 14awg aluminum leads and soldered and shoehorned tinned 8awg into mine, since it will pass 41 amps for as long as my batteries want to accept that, at the voltage I choose to let them feed. I have another one I need to do the same to. 45Amp anderson PP's on 8awg, crimped and soldered, instead of just crimped.
Might have to check SG on the screwy 31 soon. I've been neglecting it lately, and hammering it to below 12v at night, and so far it is pulling a Timex in response to the abuse.
What's that ticking?
