I'm currently using a 15 amp battery charger until I get my solar panels mounted. So it should be okay to set it at 14.8?
What is the highest voltage the charger gets the batteries to? The charger amps size doesn't matter for setting P1.
Set P1 no higher than that or the Tri will never know the batteries are as high in voltage as they will ever get with that charger. Tri says in fact to make P1 just under what the charger can do.
Don't forget to clamp the neg side of the charger to the outer end of the shunt,or the trailer frame, same thing if you wired it right, not to the battery neg post end of the shunt or else you will not see what that charger is doing on the Tri.
