Hugh, I don't have much to add here, as I'm mostly learning from your experience. But I'll add that if I understand your reference to transition current as a transition to float, several charge controllers have that feature. I have generally always used it, but primarily to allow a quick transition from absorption to float when a system with flooded batteries is left unused for days, in order to reduce gassing and excessive water consumption. The RVPP/Blue Sky Solar Boost series has this as an integral analog setup adjustment (although we have stopped using this product after too many failures over the years). The Outback MX/FM series has it as an optional either/or logic (max absorb time or done amps, whichever is achieved first, assuming a long enough solar day) and the Midnite Classic also has it.
