Thanks for that info Dave. That will be an easy day trip while we are at our PDI this summer.

After your 2 year warranty I wonder who is going to stand behind the batteries? It certainly won't be Discover.

Now confirming the conflicting info. Don't know what to say!

Keep in mind that this is just for Lifeline.

I also asked him about the Genset Command 30 setting for voltage cut out (Stop @ V). Based on the range available of 13.2-14.5 (page 9 of my Energy Command 30 manual) he told me to go with 14.5. I don't know what the default 3 bar setting in the Energy Command 30 would equate to so I am figuring I should change to 14.5. Any thoughts?

Bill, did you happen to ask if the Start @ voltage setting at 11.7 was ok?

Good info, just changed my stop voltage to 14.5 from auto. Thanks!

I didn't ask the Lifeline rep if the start voltage at 11.7 was OK but in the Magnum manuals it advises to set the start voltage at least 1 volt above LBCO. I also spoke to the salesperson at Centex Batteries in Texas (where I bought the Life
Ines). He seemed very knowledgeable and confirmed LBCO at 10.5 is fine. So I feel start voltage at 11.7 should be good plus in testing it works for me.
