FullRiver DC250-6 batteries on Magnum PSW charger


Mainuh

Recommended Posts

We're picking up our new to us coach in a few weeks from the dealer. They were going to put new wet cells in place of the 4 house batteries but I covered the cost of upgrading to 4 FullRiver DC250-6 AGM batteries after reading Jack's comments on them and several others.

 

My question is on the Magnum PSW inverter and programming the ME-RC there are 2 AGM programs: #1 explicitly for Lifeline and #2 says "east Penn/Deka/Discover/Trojan AGM batteries". The (4) 6v batteries will be connected in 2 pairs of 12v and those 2 pairs in parallel. I'm guessing program 2 will work for the FullRiver as their specs for 12v are: bulk/absorption 14.7 and float at 13.6 and the Magnum AGM2 program is 14.5 absorption and 13.5 float, 14.5 equalization.

I'm sure the dealer will be able to assist as he owns a similar coach with the same Magnum setup, but was just curious if Jack or others familiar with FullRiver and Magnum setups had setup something similar to this and used the AGM2 setup ?

Cheers,

 

Don

I use the AGM2 setup, but frankly, I rarely charge with the Magnum. Usually I use the MidNite charge controller with a custom profile that matches the Fullriver.
