Hi everone,
I have just used a CTEK M200 to charge the dual batteries (lead acid) in my camper trailer since I came home from a trip.
The charger has been putting in 14.9Amps (as read off the Victron battery monitor) all night and my battery monitor says the batteries state of charge is now 100% but the charger has continued to input the high current so I switched it off.
The batteries are standard Marine lead acid batteries and I could hear the liquid in them bubbling.
Should I have let the CTEK continue to charge and hoped it would switch to the next stage?
Does this extended time charging at high amperage sound right (does my CTEK know best) or does it sound like something is wrong??
