Next message: (no email): "TWL: Re: Battery charging"
This is what combiners do. Once the primary bank has reached a predetermined
voltage, the charge is passed on to the secondary bank. It would be nuts to
combine different types of batteries. One vendor sells completely different
models for each battery type, while others let you set the charger for a
specific battery. One AGM manufacturer, Concorde, even sells its own
chargers.
