ian as you seem to know a lot more than me about controllers and batteries is the volt charge of 12.7 ok when fully charged then 12.2 volts after 7 hours work on a high flow?

and should i be trickle charging it every night overnight?


thanks in advance ian.

by the way its a 75 ah leisure battery(5 months old)

Dazmond you should be able to work for 5-6 days without the need to charge your battery leisure batterys are typically ran quite low before the need to charge . Mike

I know but i never payed any attention and got over 2yrs out my first trolley battery which was a 110ah deeep cycle battery .

Got over a year out of second one which was not as good , Then with my streambox 85ah battery i got 18 months out of it by only charging every few days . Mike
