BB has recently said to allow 30 min in absorption at 14.4 to allow top balancing of the cells before going back to float. My Victron 712 battery monitor lost track of 100% when the batteries stayed...

Nothing vague about it. I called Battle Born and they told me the specific voltages and times to set up my charger and solar controllers. Of course only people serious about getting full use of...

You are completely wrong. BB's will charge on 13.2 volts just fine, but according to a chart supplied to me by BATTLEBORN, 14.4 volts is 100% SOC, and 13.2 volts is 70% SOC. You may think or your...

So you are saying BB's can take a 13.2 volt input and change it into the 14.4 volts necessary to charge them to 100%? That is truly amazing.

Been a while since I have used a converter/charger, but seem to remember that when plugged in, they supply all the 12 volt to the coach.
If this is true, why does the charger even have to be on...

Actually ion is pretty close. Might ask Progressive, if they can set up their charge profile with charge wizard to 14.4 bulk and 13.5 float, that would solve your problem, could be added to your one...
