xantrex sw2012 charge settings
i'm having a little trouble getting things set up on my charger. it will step through bulk and absorption fine, but when it goes into float it won't stay there. as soon as there's any draw on the bank, (like the fridge) it will drop back to absorption or sometimes bulk. my batteries are spending way too much time at too high a voltage.
i was thinking this charger would act like the one on my old prosine, where it would remain in float and just supply any demands as needed.
there's also an option of simply using a two stage charge and eliminate the float. i'm wondering if this might be a better way as i can set the voltage to start recharging where ever i want.
does anyone have any experience with this situation?
