This has been discussed on this list in years past. It is possible to use an 
outback charge controller as a battery charger. You need to put the 120 AC into 
a bridge rectifier, then feed the 120 DC into the controller’s PV input. So 
you’ll have an 80 amp battery charger.

You can manually adjust Iotas with tweaking the potentiomiters while monitoring 
it with a god volt meter. But no time adjustment.

Wrenches,

Does anyone know of a 120/12 volt battery charger that can be programmed for 
absorb and float voltage and time in absorb mode? I have been needing this 
product for many years but I can only find it in inverters with built in 
chargers from Magnum, Outback, and Xantrex.
