Think that was your first post on the thread, will that do you or is there more squirm to come. Oh sorry you can't complain to Daniel and try and get me banned.Β You call that "pushing T105's hard"? I agreed with Nick that if OP could charge them correctly then Trojans would last longer than cheapo leisures. I stand by that.

I wasn't wrong! For fuck's sake, it's NOT ADJUSTABLE! Whatever π ππ

Ah so you blindly agreed with someone even though they were wrong to go down that route, having missed the charging problems. Maybe you need to go to Specsavers so you can read between the lines. What the OP was looking for was a solution to short lived batteries. Have you corrected all the errors in you battery thread yet

Everything that Ricco has written supports the fact that he's been correctly charging his batteries to 100%, as indicated by the tail current. Your second point confuses me. Unless I've gone completely senile I don't recall starting a battery thread. Should you be referring to the Charging thread then yes, I have made a correction as pointed out by Pete, and added a caveat suggested by Albion. I am unaware of any other other errors. Perhaps you would be so kind as to point them out so that they can be addressed. I don't claim to be perfect and may well have made mistakes.

Perhaps you would be so kind as to point them out so that they can be addressed. I don't claim to be perfect and may well have made mistakes. Well in fact we disagree every line of that post to me screams charging problems and the final confirmation is "More recently: I bought a new battery in November last year. A cheap sealed jobbie. Now, 12 months later, I think it's knackered. I charged the battery yesterday as I do every day, when there is insufficient solar. I did it with the genny and when I switched it off 1.5 amps were going into the 110 AH battery. Not quite fully charged, but not far off. This morning, after a calculated use of 10 AH last night my volt meter showed 12.2. So, it seems my battery is sulphated to the point that its capacity is down to around 20-30 AH. " Now I will leave you the school teacher to work it out. If you can't see it then you are stupider than even I thought you were.

May I suggest ..... It is step adjustable but not variable

Fight, fight, fight, for a minute back there is though I was back know at school!
I think Graham & Tony are arguing overy semantics. Does having three preset modes, each with a different set voltage to suit different types of battery count as adjustable?
In any case Ricco's charger isn't best suited to Trojan batteries.

I looked at the manual, saw that it had three basic presets and looked but failed to find any way to adjust those presets. The lack of adjustment therefore made it unsuitable for Trojans.

My advice there, is set it to the wrong "preset mode" and see what happens π. Having three preset modes to choose from, suggests you have an ability to "adjust". (Sighs, these fights get so silly, and worthless).

To my mind, 'adjustable' means that you can adjust it to suit your circumstances.
It's gone on long enough now - I shall bow out.

No it isn't semantics. He and Nick recommended Trojans and the OP bought it. I don't know even now whether the OP is going to go out and buy Trojans. I hope he does not as I have every reason to believe that Nick & Tony will have wasted his money for him.
