Hanley --
My charge voltage is 14.4 and eventually it drops down to a float voltage (non-settable)
of about 13.4. Since I'm on the boat for extended periods, and sometimes anchored
for a long time (either waiting out a series of storms or enjoying a beautiful spot
in Maine) being able to properly recharge my battery is important. If I'm stopped for
a while I'll go easy on the use of lights and the computer and let the solar panel
keep the battery recharged. My "bank" is two Group 27s, but only one is selected
at any given time. The solar charge controller is hard wired to my primary one.
