I have long been a fan of aggressive charge voltages for flooded batteries in
daily cyclical use. As Steve has emphasized, temp. comp. is imperative,
especially using higher absorb voltage as over-voltage at high cell temperature
rapidly reduces cycle life.
It is my observation that most L16 s
What about temperature sensors bolted to the lugs? Surely a physical
thermal transfer over metal is more accurate that the external case would
be?

Steve,
So the message I am getting is even though we are always

Steve,
Yikes, so to confirm, even on your or anybody's double-walled

all so concerned about protecting. I've said this before, no doubt I'm

Good Morning Wrenches…
I’d like to take the recent Trojan thread to throw this out there!
With the IEC certification, many battery manufactures are being forced to
recommend higher settings to charge their batteries. The problem with off
grid systems, or even some grid back up systems is the
