The Eagle has one 60 amp charger that charges 4 bank, house -three 8-D deep cycle.. main start - one start 8-D, gen start - one start 8-D, that charges all the 8-D batteries for the last 15 year with no damage or shorting the live. The house bank is used 24/7 365 days and the start may a dozen times per year. I have a volt meter that reads each bank and the all read 13+ volts.
