They are often referred to as "smart chargers" because they monitor the state of battery charge and current draw and regulate their output as necessary.

The shore use of DC loads , lights etc is HOW the batts get overcharged.

The voltage is held higher to keep the bat set from discharging , which is then a constant charge , costing water.
