Hi Bob;
Little off topic but I was wondering if you could give me a specific recommendation for a maintenance charger for my RV batteries. I have 6 U2400's also called US145xc's. These are 6volt deep cycle wet cells rated at 251 amps. At 12 volts this gives about 750amps for the system. Anything out there that you think would work well.
Thanks
Mark

If you're simply wanting to maintain batteries
that are topped off at the time the RV is parked,
just about anything would work. But if you want
to top-off less-than-full batteries, then something
a bit more robust would be called for.
Anything with Schumacher's name on it would be a
good bet. Here's a 12A, processor controlled charger/
maintainer you can probably pick up at Walmart
for $50 or so.

You might also check RV sites. I eventually bought a unit that
supposedly charges low batteries, then maintains them at an optimum
level, all while using the least amount of electricity. I think it was
$100 or so and has 80 amp capability. If needed, I can go get the name
of the unit (will take some time, though).
