My Avion C-11 originally came with a trickle charger. We changed it out to a better charger in the early 1970s. When I rebuilt the camper, I went to a Schumacher "Ship n Shore" automatic charger.

For my small camper, the automatic charger works great.
When I plug the camper into my generator the battery charger automatically will go to the correct setting to charge the batteries. I don't even have to worry about it. By the way, the charger was about $45 after I shopped around for it.
