| Quote: | Comments/Questions: I plan on using a gell cell battery in my Glasair and
have been told that I must set the charging voltage at a different level
if I do not want to damage the battery. No one is able to tell me what
voltage level I should use.So much for these self styled experts ,eh?

No special considerations. Set for 14.2 volts nominal.
There ARE "optimal" modes of operation for best life
in the lab . . . which are generally impractical in the
field and overshadowed by other, much more significant
stresses.
Install it, run it, check for capacity after first
year and replace when capacity drops below your
personally defined endurance minimums. The act of
"tweaking" nominal bus voltage for the purpose of
maximizing service life will be exceedingly difficult
to validate and probably not improve on service life
by more than a few percent.
