Purely guesswork... the 40a boost may flip a breaker at some point if sustained, or maybe it fuses closed and the internal wiring becomes the fuse :wink: Personally, I'd prefer to use a charger rated… (View Post)

Mppt CAN be better, but it really depends. IMHO, pwm don't "suck", they're just the right tool for a different job than mppt. In many cases, for example, using a single 60 cell panel (or mu… (View Post)

Do you know about how long it takes after the transition from bulk to absorb to reach ~25a? (View Post)

As Mcgivor noted, current will be mitigated to some extent by the battery itself. It seems to me it's unlikely all 3 sources would be at max current at once anyway. The alternator won't have full out… (View Post)

When it gets to the absorb voltage setpoint (temp compensated), it will transition out of bulk to absorb. In absorb, voltage is held constant at the setpoint, and current drops off as the battery get… (View Post)
